Jamie xx is currently in the midst of his In Waves Tour, which recently wrapped up in South America and will head to Asia, North America and Europe in 2024 and 2025.
It’s in support of his recently released second studio album, which saw him reunite with The xx members, Romy and Oliver Sim on the track “Waited All Night”, as well as collaborate with Honey Dijon, Robyn and Kelsey Lu.
