Oliver Sim has shared a new track called ‘GMT’ and announced a string of headline dates for this autumn.The song is the latest preview of The xx musician’s debut solo album ‘Hideous Bastard’, which is due for release on September 9 via Young.
It follows the previous singles ‘Romance With A Memory’, ‘Fruit’ and ‘Hideous’.“‘GMT’ was one of the first songs made for the record,” Sim explained of his stripped-back latest offering.“I’d chased Jamie [xx, producer] to Australia to escape British winter.
