Bombay Bicycle Club is a four piece indie rock group hailing from Crouch End London, UK. While the structure of their sound is primarily built around guitars they have exceeded the typicality of guitar based rock and have introduced elements of electronica, experimental folk and world music in their sound. Bombay Bicycle Club have been writing songs for Saturday nights and songs for Sunday mornings since their mid-teens. They remain one of the most inventive, insistent and, arguably, influential British guitar bands of the past generation
They released the song “Ivy & Gold” on 9 May 2010 and the following week it hit 56 on the singles charts. This song would appear on their highly successful sophomore release “Flaws” which came out approximately 2 months later. The album skyrocketed to number 8 on the UK Albums Chart and before the years end it was deemed Silver by the British Phonographic Industry.
The album ‘“So, Long See You Tomorrow” marks a departure in the groups guitar based song writing structure and hones in on sample based electronica. The album is also a creative response to Steadman’s travel through India, Japan and Turkey and henceforth features ample use of world music sounds. The release of “So Long, See You Tomorrow” marked their biggest success to date, hitting #1 in the UK charts.
