Bombay Bicycle Club

Think your year-six recorder skills were pretty enviable? These London high school buds actually lived the School of Rock dream when they were offered a record deal just after finishing their studies. Now they're gracing Australian shores for the first time in almost two years.

Overview

Think your recorder skills in Year 6 were pretty enviable? London high school buds Jack Steadman, Jamie MacColl, Suren de Saram and Ed Nash actually lived the School of Rock dream when they were offered a record deal just after finishing their studies.

Fast-forward a few years, a few albums and more than a few shows, Bombay Bicycle Club (albeit with less cherub-looking faces) are still rocking it. For the first time in almost two years, the British four-piece will grace Australia's east coast. Blessed with an ability to bounce between genres, their latest self-labelled 'dance' record released in February of this year, So Long, See You Tomorrow, is the group's fourth album in five years.

For their Australian gigs, expect a little bit of psychedelia of 2011's A Different Kind of Fix, a little bit of acoustic goodness from 2010's Flaws, and a whole lot of Londony vibes.
