‘Turn The World On’ is streaming now. It’s vocalist Jack Steadman’s reflection on becoming a parent for the first time and the hopefulness of youth that’s reminiscent of their album Flaws in its folk sensibilities and breezy melody, but with a maturity and refinement indicative of a band creating their best work to date.

The band say of the song ,"'Turn The World On' is the last song Jack wrote for the album and also the most personal. Some of us became parents for the first time when we were writing and recording over the last couple of years and 'Turn the World On' is a reflection on becoming a parent and the hopefulness of youth. To capture the spirit of the song, we tried to recreate Jack's childhood bedroom for the video."

Following a run of very special and triumphant ‘karaoke’ fan shows, Bombay Bicycle Club are now pleased to share initial details of four intimate, acoustic shows in unusual locations in association with Sofar Sounds for later this month. Whilst the specific locations of each show remains a secret, they will happen in Cardiff, Leeds, London and Brighton in September.

Fans can enter a competition to win two tickets for the secret show of their choice when pre-ordering the new record from selected independent record shop within each city: Spillers Records (Cardiff), Crash Records (Leeds), Resident Records (Brighton), and Flashback Records (London).

Bombay Bicycle Club’s sixth album, My Big Day, is released on 20th October 2023. It was produced by Jack Steadman at The Church Studios in North London and then back at the band’s own studio. It features an eclectic host of guest vocalists that perfectly encapsulates the breadth of the band’s widespread appeal.

Damon Albarn, Holly Humberstone, Nilüfer Yanya and Jay Som all lend their voices across the course of the record, with a fifth special guest releasing a song with the band later this Summer.
