Bombay Bicycle Club's handsome new album, A Different Kind of Fix, was just "officially" released in the U.S earlier this month, but the record, which came out in 2011 in the UK and Europe and digitally in the States, topped many critics' lists as one of the best releases of the year. The London band returns to New York for two dates this March, bringing along their frequent collaborator, the excellent Lucy Rose, and Toronto rockers The Darcys as openers. The Alternate Side is giving away tickets to BBB's Bowery Ballroom gig on March 5.
