The Boy I Used to Be is the first extended play (EP) by Bombay Bicycle Club, released in 2007.

[4] It was the band's first release since winning Channel 4's "Road to V" competition, where they won the opportunity to be the opening act at the 2006 V Festival.

[5] The EP was recorded in late-2006 at Chapel Studios in Lincolnshire with the music producer Jim Abbiss,[6] who had previously worked with Arctic Monkeys and Kasabian.

[8] In an interview with The Independent, the band stated that this was because they wanted to gain more experience in the industry first.
