About a year or so ago, I met Bombay Bicycle Club at a small club in Houston after the put on one of the better shows I've seen in awhile. Great guys. Funny to say but if you'll excuse Jack Steadman for a moment for his Fred Perry shirts and conservative nature - and look behind the dressings of an everyday North Londoner - you'll realise what a genius he is. When I met him, he had his mind deep in his headphones listening to Art Blakey.
On their new single "It's Alright Now", the guys have really branched out, incorporating quite a bit more in the way of acoustic instrumentation. Completely different sound and from my understanding the new album (out soon) is terrific. This has a chance to be the first big album of the year and I'm eager to hear more.
Here's a link to the new single: BBC - It's Alright Now
