Hot from the success of their singles “Seven Mountains” and “Waterproof”, double platinum-selling Swiss band 77 Bombay Street share their new EP “Seven Mountains” with Music Week premiering the stream worldwide. Keeping our eyes firmly planted on the rise of 77 Bombay Street since the release of “Seven Mountains” it’s easy to see why their fan base has started to cross borders and oceans too.
The four brothers comprised of Matt, Joe, Simri-Ramon and Esra Buchli draw common comparisons to The Beatles, Snow Patrol and Kings of Leon although the band say they seldom listen to contemporary music, being driven by their own life experiences as influence. “The lead single “Seven Mountains” is a reference to our ups and downs. As a band, we have really been shaken about over the past few years: we had to find ourselves anew,“ says Matt Buchli.
Having shared stage with the likes of The Cure, Sting, Kasabian, Arctic Monkeys, Imagine Dragons and more,the Swiss-born brothershad their debut album ‘Up In The Sky’ (2011) going double platinum with the single of the same name going one step higher at triple platinum and also going on to triumph in the Swiss Music Awards winning in the categories 'Best Album Pop Rock National' and 'Best Hit National'.
While searching for themselves, 77 Bombay Street has really developed in leaps and bounds. The vocals on the new EP have a noticeable confidence. In terms of their style too, they have explored new genres, adding elements of classic to their more usual folk-rock style. For the first time ever, they have supplemented their acoustic sound with stringed and wind instruments. Despite being in their seventh year, there isn’t a hint of a seven-year itch here; this is all about a brave new Bombay sound.
