Continuing what seems to be a musical trend of 2015, Los Angeles duo Paige and Chase Duddy have come together to form dark synth pop duo XYLØ, and have recently uploaded their debut track, America.

With haunting and honest vocals reminiscent of Lana Del Rey and the electropop undertones of Banks, America is both an immediate and breathtaking effort from the West Coast duo, conveying a spectrum of emotion depth and a slow-burning vulnerability. Already endorsed by fellow Cali outfit The NBHD, it’s a promising initial track, to which you can listen below.
