Oliver Sim Shares The Beach Boys-Sampling Single ‘GMT’ And Announces 2022 Tour Dates

As the world awaits a new album from The xx , Oliver Sim is going ahead and taking some time for his solo career. He has a new album, Hideous Bastard , on the way, which he’s offered some previews of so far via a handful of singles. Today, Sim has delivered a new one, “GMT,” an ethereal and subtly thumping tune he co-wrote with his The xx bandmate Jamie xx.

Sim told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe of the track:

“I wrote this song with Mr. Jamie xx, my brother and best friend, and one winter he kind of decided to escape English winter, which is brutal, brutal, brutal. Real months where you question life and everything. So he went off to Australia and I chased him there. And we spent a few weeks in Sydney, did a road trip down to Byron Bay, listening to music, swimming a lot… we were listening to a lot of The Beach Boys at the time. When we arrived in Byron Bay, we started ‘GMT.’ Sampling is such a personal thing. You’re not just sampling because of how beautiful it sounds, but because of all of the emotional memories you have locked into it. We had to solidify the moment. We sampled The Beach Boys and ‘GMT’ was created.”

Listen to “GMT” above. Sim also just announced tour dates for this fall, so find those below.

Oliver Sim Announces 2022 Tour Dates, Shares “GMT”: Stream

The post Oliver Sim Announces 2022 Tour Dates, Shares “GMT”: Stream appeared first on Consequence .

Oliver Sim has unveiled his new single “GMT” along with plans to embark on a wide-ranging tour in Fall 2022.

Coming in support of Sim’s horror-inspired debut solo album, Hideous Bastard , the trek begins September 29th in Seattle and makes stops in cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, and New York before hopping the pond on October 20th to play Copenhagen, Paris, Amsterdam, and more. See the full itinerary below.

Fans can sign up here for early access to the pre-sale, which starts on Tuesday, July 12th at 10:00 a.m. local time. General on-sale begins at the same time the following day via Ticketmaster .

On “GMT,” Sim declares he’s “On Greenwich Mean Time/ Missing you, missing you” before crooning, “Someone decided to save my life/ Pink and blue, pink and blue.” Watch its pink-hued music video, directed by Laura Jane Coulson, below.

“‘GMT’ was one of the first songs made for the record,” the xx musician said in a statement. “The song was written about pining over a love back home, thousands of miles apart on different time zones. It’s also a love letter to London.”

Produced by Jamie xx, the song joins previously-released tracks such as “Romance with a Memory,” “Fruit,” and “Hideous” as the latest offering from Hideous Bastard , which is due out September 9th via Young.

Oliver Sim shares new single ‘GMT’ and announces 2022 headline tour

"[It's] about pining over a love back home, thousands of miles apart on different time zones," Sim said of the track

Oliver Sim has shared a new track called ‘GMT’ and announced a string of headline dates for this autumn.

• READ MORE: The xx – ‘I See You’ review

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. We worked in Sydney and road tripped down to Byron Bay, stopping at secluded beaches and listening to a lot of The Beach Boys and Brian Wilson on the way.”

He continued: “The first song we made was ‘GMT’, sampling Brian Wilson’s ‘Smile’. The song was written about pining over a love back home, thousands of miles apart on different time zones. It’s also a love letter to London.”

The track comes with a simplistic video by Laura Jane Coulson, a longtime friend and collaborator of Sim’s. It sees the singer perform ‘GMT’ in front of a changing sky backdrop and visuals of busy city streets.

“We wanted to make something simple and positive that focused on Oliver’s performance,” Coulson said. “I also wanted to capture his energy and show moments where we see a hint of his off-stage persona. We had so much fun making it.”

Having played his debut London solo show late last month (where he covered Placebo and was joined by bandmate Romy ), Sim is scheduled to embark on a North American, European and UK tour this September.

He’ll take to the stage at New Century Hall in Manchester on October 29 before returning to London for a gig at KOKO in Camden Town the following night (October 30).

Tickets go on sale at 10am (local time) next Wednesday (July 13). You can purchase yours here and see the full itinerary below.

Oliver Sim will play:

Oliver Sim —best known for his work as songwriter, bassist and vocalist for The xx — heads to Shoreditch Town Hall for his debut solo tour FRUIT .

Sim, born and raised in London, has been a member of The xx since its inception in 2005. After the success of their 2017 LPI See You , the band’s three members made a conscious decision to take some time to themselves. After a period of rest and reflection, and at the encouragement of friends, Sim began to work on solo material. Taking inspiration from his love of horror films and his own life, Sim put together a handful of demos and brought them to bandmate Jamie xx to flesh out.

All tickets sold in the stalls are for standing only. All tickets sold in the balcony are unreserved seating.

We will be taking extra precautions to ensure the safety of everyone in the building. Whilst at the Town Hall you must abide by all Covid-19 Safety Measures in place, which you can find here .

Sim’s debut album  Hideous Bastard features a collection of songs produced by bandmate Jamie xx and inspired by Sim’s love of horror movies and his own life experiences. The album is set to be released Sept. 9 via Young. His new single “GMT” is the fourth single off Hideous Bastard and features full reaching vocals that roll over swirling and sentimental instrumentals. The resulting sound hums and rumbles with a familiar longing and feels as if it is a deeply moved by something presently out of reach.
