The small matter of politics aside, what an absolutely glorious time to be alive. Bombay Bicycle Club are back with new music, and how wonderful to be able to say that?! The band premiered their first single in five years - Eat, Sleep, Wake (Nothing But You) - a couple of nights ago on BBC Radio 1 and it is a total gem of a track. I was lucky enough to hear them perform it live a few weeks ago at their London warm-up gig at Islington Assembly Hall, and fell for it on first listen. It was heartwarming at the show to see so much joy on the band's faces, the wait may have been long but I think it is clear that it was just what they all needed, taking some time for themselves and various musical and academic projects, but they're back and as good as ever. And there's an album on the way!
Sharing the track online the band write that they're "excited to be sharing new music after five years away. Recording it earlier this year reminded us all of the joy of working together on something we love. Hopefully you all like it as much as we do." Judging by the response that I've seen so far I'd say that fans are loving it. Listen below!
