Xoxo are emerging from the pandemic with new music and are already setting out on a tour of live shows throughout the U.K. "My New Habit" is just one of their latest releases but stands out among the rest with its light, bell-toned melody, raw vocalizing, and a contagious passion for music. This single highlights a quick, yet romantic, crush that might not be as mutual as our lead-singer and storyteller believes it to be. "My New Habit" seems like a one-sided love story, still trying to get the girl ... or even just her attention for that matter.
It seemed like Xoxo have gone through some rebranding over the past few years, and were quieter than usual during the entirety of the pandemic. I am hoping their upcoming releases are enough to keep them afloat because they are truly oozing with a new kind of pop-music talent that I think the world would be excited to hear. While I have very little experience in the world of music management, I think Xoxo should work towards promoting "My New Habit" and future music with a little more oomph. (Which is what it deserves!)
I really did enjoy Xoxo's latest single and I will be looking forward to their future releases. Their songs are catchy and have the ability to engulf you in their knack for music, I just hope to see a little more publicity before their next releases.
