Bombay Bicycle Club Announce Two Irish Gigs For The New Year

Bombay Bicycle Club may have taken a brief hiatus from the music scene, but they’re back with plans for an Irish takeover.

The band took to Twitter on Tuesday to announce details of their fifth album along with UK and Ireland tour dates. The new album titled Everything Else Has Gone Wrong is set for release January 17 2020. Fans have been waiting for new music since 2014 so it’s not a moment too soon in our books.   According to the band’s statement online: “This is an album for anyone who’s ever turned to music in a time of crisis, whether personal or political. It’s about the solace one can get from listening to music or playing music when everything else has gone wrong. It’s about finding kernels of hope and renewal in dire situations”.  

Lots to tell you about: Album announcement, UK tour dates and the Eat, Sleep, Wake video.

  The thirteen date UK and Ireland tour will coincide with the new album release so needless to say, the foursome will have a very busy new year. Two Irish gigs are amongst the line-up; one at Dublin's Vicar Street on February 10 and the other at Belfast's Ulster Hall on February 12 2020 with support coming from The Big Moon and Liz Lawrence.   The acclaimed-indie rock band played Electric Picnic in 2014 and made a grand return to the Irish festival scene with their set at All Together Now in August. They followed that with a performance at Cork Opera House on August 3, their first gig in the rebel county in almost seven years! It seems that Bombay Bicycle Club have rediscovered their love for the Irish and luckily for us, we won’t have to wait as long for their next show. Tickets go on sale at 10a.m. on September 13.
