British guitar band Bombay Bicycle Club are excited to announce details of their return. Their sixth album, My Big Day, is to be released on October 20, 2023, via Arts & Crafts. It was produced by vocalist/guitarist 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, Jay Som, Nilüfer Yanya and Holly Humberstone all lend their voices across the course of the record, with a fifth special guest releasing a song with the band later this Summer.
To coincide with the album’s announcement, Bombay Bicycle Club have also shared the album’s title track, a crunching, infectious leftfield pop song painted in technicolour. It’s a typically unpredictable guitar song that the band revel in writing and are long since revered for.

Jack sits on both sides of the glass for the duration of the record, having previously produced their fourth album So Long, See You Tomorrow, and co-production with John Congleton for 2020’s Everything Else Has Gone Wrong. Additional production comes from Paul Epworth on the track “Heaven” and Ben Allen who co-produces “Turn The World On” – the band previously worked with Allen on their hit single “Shuffle” back in 2011.
The record was mixed by Dave Fridmann (The Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, MGMT, HAIM).
