Years & Years showcase new video for ‘Shine’
The trio’s latest clip comes ahead of the release of their debut album ‘Communion’ this July.

Ahead of the impending release of their debut album, Years & Years have unveiled their brand new video for ‘Shine’.
The band’s latest shimmering offering ‘Shine’ gets taken from the band’s forthcoming debut full-length ‘Communion’, which is due for release on 10th July via Polydor. It follows on from previous singles ‘King’ and ‘Desire’, which were released earlier this year.
All raided fridges, overflowing sinks and mysterious light sources, there’s something a bit amiss about the latest clip to come from the London trio. Bringing a new meaning to the phrase ‘don’t step into the light’ - something which frontman Olly Alexander quickly learns - watch their latest video below.
The band are also gearing up for a slew of festival performances, along with two London headliners, before embarking upon a massive UK tour in October and November.
