Years & Years Vinyl Records
Showcasing the melismatic vocals of singer/actor Olly Alexander, London's Years & Years artfully combine '80s-style ambient synth pop with funky electronic beats. The group's evocative, dancey, cross-pollinated sound drew accolades that included winning the BBC's prestigious Sound of 2015 poll. That same year, they hit number one in the U.K. with their debut album, Communion, which included the chart-topping single "Shine." Their sophomore album, 2018's dystopian Palo Santo, also reached the Top Ten in the U.K. Years & Years scored a U.K. dance hit with 2021's "Starstruck," paving the way for 2022's Night Call.
