Since I saw The Kixx support Olly Murs on tour earlier in the summer, I've been a massive fan of Standing Where You Left Me - a real standout track from their live set, it packs a real punch with its combo of bouncy techno synths and ballsy chorus.
The perfect follow-up to electro-stomper Already Gone, the video for the track features footage from the band's recent live dates - If you haven't already seen the band, you'll have your chance next month as they play the esteemed O2 Academy Islington on the 1st September.
The single release of Standing Where You Left Me comes as a four-track EP, including We Begin At The End and There She Goes Again which we reviewed as part of their album sampler back in June. There's also new song Close To Me, a pretty little acoustic number accompanied by the tender refrain of violin strings.
These guys make it their mission to impress, and it's a job they accomplish easily - There's an undeniable grit to their songs that many of their contemporaries just don't have. A boy-band with a difference, The Kixx look set to go far.
Standing Where You Left Me is released on the 4th September with their debut album following later this year.
