Daxx & Roxane have built a electric reputation for being the London party band to see, naked. Someone I love spills the drinks and kills the thinks as it dusts the fine line between stripper anthem and shirtless bro-hug singalong. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but if you can’t enjoy the agendaless fun of classic rock then you’re missing the point of life, hairspray and tasselled suede.
“Someone I Love comes from a real place for all of us in the band, but of course from the lyrics it’s a pretty direct thing that all people can understand. Being a musician you have to put things out that are inspired by personal experiences in this case the location of the songs inspiration is where we shot the video so it’s real in that sense.
We recorded the song in Gothenberg Sweden with Pedro (Ferreira) and we helped us take an idea we had and push it as a band. Plus we had the chance to play around with effects and double tracking to give the song a trippy feel around the chorus.”

[Press release] ‘Someone I Love’ is a full-on rock n roll assault to the senses, with its infectious catchy sing-along chorus, relentless rhythm and string section and high-octane guitars. The track is their first collaboration with BRIT Award Winning producer Pedro Ferreira (The Darkness – “Permission To Land’, Joe Strummer, Meatloaf): “I haven’t had this much fun in the studio for a very long time. Daxx & Roxane are not just fun to work with they are a fantastic bunch of musicians and they totally rock.” – Pedro Ferreira
The track itself see’s Daxx & Roxane take on a slightly darker topic than usual with Cal Wymann (lead guitar) stating: ‘Someone I Love’ is about losing sense of your place in the world and looking for that
someone who can bring you back”
