Allie X
All The Rage

Twin Music Inc.

WE SAY

Great pop often sounds effortless. The sort of thing that you’re sure you’ve known all your life, despite it being fresh to your ears. But it immediately worms its way into your brain and you’re hooked within seconds. Canadian-born/LA based Allie X does exactly that with this masterful slice of electro-pop genius. When that chorus hits you just forty seconds in, you might as well just hold your hands up and surrender on the spot. Bold, upbeat and assured, the production and feel of it all is a very 2016 take on the ambitious, go-getting sound of the eighties. Allie’s songwriting skills along with the execution and imagery is audacious and cheeky. Tastemakers like Popjustice, Dazed & Confused, i-D, Fader, Buzzfeed and more are already smitten. She’s supported Troye Sivan on his US and Canadian dates, and, after a sold-out show at Birthdays in April, she's here again in London with her own live show tonight (July 13) at Hackney's Oslo. This song is a sweet three minutes of dazzling playfulness that’ll ultimately confirm one thing - your new obsession starts right here, folks.
