(New York, NY – May 22, 2020) – After supporting The Fitz and the Tantrums on their recent U.S. tour, infectious alt-pop trio TWIN XL – comprised of Cameron Walker-Wright (Nekokat) and brothers John Gomez and Stephen Gomez (The Summer Set) – returns today with new single “Melt” available across all digital streaming platforms now via The Orchard. CLICK HERE to listen to the catchy earworm, which the band wrote and self-produced in quarantine amidst the current COVID-19 crisis. “Melt” is the first offering from the critically acclaimed band’s forthcoming debut album.
In an interview with Rock Sound Magazine who premiered the track, lead singer Cameron Walker-Wright spoke about the inspiration behind their new song saying, “Our new single ‘Melt’ is about how much we lose ourselves in other people during relationships. We almost become unrecognizable. It’s about being so enamored with someone that they can do absolutely no wrong. One of my favorite lines in the song is ‘kiss all of my friends goodbye.'”
The hypnotic hybrid of Los Angeles-based alt-pop band TWIN XL had its breakout in 2019 with the release of their critically acclaimed debut EP How To Talk To Strangers featuring the catchy hit single “Good,” which peaked at #19 at alternative radio and spent 5 weeks on Billboard’s Top Alternative Songs Chart peaking at #24. Described by NYLON as “very, very good,” and by MTV News as “a Certified Bop™,” the single peaked at #1 on Spotify’s top alternative music playlist The New Alt and was featured on Out Now. Along the way, the band has toured alongside the likes of The Fitz and the Tantrums, lovelytheband, The Maine, The Mowgli’s, Jukebox The Ghost, and I Don’t Know How But They Found Me and scored high-profile syncs on FOX’s The Resident, Hulu’s Light As A Feather, and MTV’s Ex On The Beach, to name a few.
