summer.
Contrary to his parents’ reports Xavier was immaculately conceived. Any resemblance he bears to them is purely coincidental. His incessant howling around the house, neighbourhood
mini-concerts from his bedroom window, and impromptu performances for houseguests prompted his mother to arrange an audition with the Boys Choir of Harlem. Not only did he get in, but within his first year he was touring with the group as a featured
soloist at the age of 11. During his seven-year stint with the group he got to sing alongside notable performers like Paul McCartney, Quincy Jones, Whitney Houston and his hero Stevie Wonder.
While studying at Columbia University, Xavier managed to make a name for himself singing in New York’s downtown club scene, between socializing and not doing his coursework. In fact, he won one contest so
many times, he was asked not to return.
His mellifluous voice makes women moist and men question their sexuality. With this hot groove, Xavier wraps you up inside the music and makes you feel it to the core.
'A comfortably Numb-esque stellar rewire that will have purists quaking in their boots, while the disco citizens rollerblade on by...summer's holiday anthem sorted?' i-D
