}}Love Runs Blind, often abbreviated as LRB, is a Bangladeshi rock band formed in 1991 in Chittagong City by Ayub Bachchu. They are one of the most successful bands in South Asia.[2] Since their formation, they have released thirteen studio albums and two live albums. They have also appeared in some mixed albums. They are considered to be among the pioneers of Bangladeshi hard rock music. They were originally formed as a hard rock band, but have experimented with many subgenres of rock and roll.[3][4]

After signing with Sargam Records, LRB released the first double album in Bangladesh, LRB I and LRB II in 1992. Their 3rd album "সুখ (Happiness)" (1993) helped them to get more commercial success in the country, and featured the song "চলো বদলে যায় (Let's Change)", which is among one of the most popular rock songs in Bangladesh. Their popularity continued with hit albums like "তবুও (Yet)" (1994), "ঘুমন্ত শহরে (In the Sleeping City)" (1995) etc. They are the only Bangladeshi band to perform in the Madison Square Garden, New York. They rose to mainstream fame in the early 1990s and is part of "Big Three of Rock" along with Ark and Nagar Baul, who were responsible for popularizing hard rock music in Bangladesh in the 1990s.[5][6] In October 2018, lead singer and lead guitarist of the band Ayub Bachchu, died of cardiac failure in his own residence. Bachchu gave his last performance in Rangpur, Bangladesh, four days before his death. The band have been performing with drummer Golam ur Rahman on vocals ever since.

LRB is considered to be one of the most influential and successful rock bands of Bangladesh. The Top Tens ranked them number 4 on their list of "Top 10 Rock Bands of Bangladesh"[7]. They have won a record six Meril Prothom Alo Awards and a Citycell-Channel I Music Award in 2007.

History

Early Years, L.R.B. I and L.R.B. II (1990-1992)

In the late 1990, Ayub Bachchu got out of Souls. Bachchu along with S.I. Tutul, Saidul Hasan Swapan, Habib Anwar Joy formed the band LRB, which stood for Little River Band. But, after Bachchu found out that an Australian rock band had the same name, he changed it to Love Runs Blind. Their first line up included Bachchu on vocals and guitars, S.I. Tutul on keyboards, Swapan on bass, Joy on drums. LRB were invited to perform in a concert in University of Dhaka arranged by BAMBA[8]on 26 April 1991 along with other rock bands like Souls, Feelings, Ark and many other bands.[9]

In their early days they used to play live shows in Hotel Sheraton and Chambeeli Super Club along with bands like Ark and Feedback. In early 1991, they signed a deal with Sargam and went on to record their albums LRB I and LRB II, which was the first double album in Bangladesh. The album was released in Cassette format. It included some of the greatest hit songs like "ঢাকার সন্ধ্যা (Evening of Dhaka)", "ঘুম ভাঙ্গা শহরে (In the Woke Up City)", "হকার (Hawker)", "মা (Mother)" and "এক কাপ চা (A Cup of Tea)".[10][11]

"সুখ (Happiness)" and "তবুও (Yet)" (1993-1994)

After the release of their double albums, they signed a new contract with Soundtek in the mid 1992 and quickly started to work on their third album সুখ (Happiness). The album came out in 1993. It was the bands first album to get commercial success. With the power ballad "চলো বদলে যাই (Let’s Change)" becoming the most popular rock song of the year, they became one of the best bands of that era. The song became their signature song. The album also included hard rock song "গতকাল রাতে (Last Night)", "রুপালী গিটার (Silver Guitar)". After the release of সুখ (Happiness), drummer Habib Anwar Joy left the band for Ark. His place was filled by Milton Akbar in the early 1994. In 1994, they released their fourth studio album তবুও (Yet) from Sargam Records. It included the hit song "রাত জাগা পাখি (Night Bird)". Though the album was not as successful like the previous album, it cemented their hard rock status.[12]

Death of Ayub Bachchu and tribute concert (2018-present)

In 2012, Ayub Bachchu was admitted to the CCU Hospital in Dhaka for the accretion of water in his lungs. He recovered after receiving treatment. On 18 October 2018, he died from cardiac failure at his own residence. He was declared dead at Square Hospital at 9:55 a.m. He was laid to rest in Chittagong City beside his mother’s grave.

After his death his bandmates and other musicians in the country held a concert named "Tribute to Ayub Bachchu" which was produced by BAMBA, where many bands performed songs of LRB. A tribute concert in Kolkata was held on 24 November 2018, title "আইয়ুব বাচ্চুর স্মরণে দুই বাংলার রকবাজি (In Memorium of Ayub Bachchu, the Rocking of Two Bangla)" where many Indian artists performed songs of LRB.

The remaining members of the band, along with his [Bachchu] son Ahnaf, performed in the whole country. They started another tour from 22 January, 2019, with Golam ur Rahman Romel on vocals and drums, Abdullah al Masud on guitars and Saidul Hasan Swapan on bass. They’re first show was held at "Hotel the Palace" in Sylhet.

Their first show outside country was held in India in 1997 at Jadavpur University, where LRB was to perform. But they organiser was little bit doubtful about the quality of the band. After their performance they request LRB to act as a judge which Ayub Bachchu agreed to comply with. In 1998, LRB went for their first international tour in United States, where they played in seven states.
