It might be their debut single, but Nashville outfit NIGHTLY sound like seasoned professionals on “XO.” The track finds the alt-rockers tapping into a wealth of carefree vibes just in time for summer with a sing-a-long hook, but it also manages to touch on more serious lyrical themes in the process; “‘XO’ is about being in a relationship that isn’t healthy. It’s one of those things that feels good in the moment, or when you’re together, but you know that ultimately you need to get out of.”
Check out “XO” after the jump and be sure to follow UTG on Twitter for more music news.
