Romy, a member of The xx, has unveiled a new track titled ‘Love Who You Love’. The single is out now via Young and serves as the final addition to her debut solo album, ‘Mid Air’.
Originally written in 2020, the song took shape over several iterations before reaching its final version. Described by Romy as a “proudly queer love song”, the release is accompanied by a video directed by Vic Lentaigne, her creative and life partner.
“I wanted to write a song that not only celebrates and uplifts love, [but also] calls for change. The history of resilience and togetherness in the face of unbelievable challenges within the community is so powerful. Personally, finding friends, family and people I look up to and learn from through queer clubbing has made me feel so much less alone and braver in so many aspects of life,” said Romy. “These experiences and the people I’ve met continue to be so inspiring to the music I’m making, and this song intends to be a love letter of visibility and pride. No one can take the love you feel away from you – it’s yours,” Romy commented.
