London electronica trio Years and Years stream their new single in what looks like being a momentous year for them, after today being announced as the winners of the BBC Music Sound Of 2015 list, which highlights the best new artists for the year ahead. The list was compiled using tips from 139 UK-based critics, broadcasters and bloggers. Previous winners include Adele, Ellie Goulding and Jessie J.
Set for release on March 1, 'King' was premiered on Zane Lowe's Radio One show last night (January 8) as his 'Hottest Record In The World', and has been a live stand-out over the past year.
