Bombay Bicycle Club is a British indie rock band from London — not a business in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
The Band
- Formed: 2005 at University College School, Hampstead
- Members: Jack Steadman (vocals/guitar), Jamie MacColl (guitar), Suren de Saram (drums), Ed Nash (bass)
- Sound: Indie rock → folk → electronic → genre-fluid

- Hiatus: 2016–2019; reunited for touring/recording
Name Origin
Named after a chain of Indian restaurants in London (now closed). Nothing to do with bicycles or Canada.
Winnipeg Connection?
None documented. The band has toured Canada (Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver) but not Winnipeg recently. If you're looking for a bicycle shop in Winnipeg, try: Woodcock Cycle, Flamingo Bike Shop, Bike Depot, or The Bike Shop.
