Unlike any other rock band in Hong Kong, the band wants to make something different from the standard triad with guitar, bass & drums.

The band quickly gains notice in Hong Kong indie pop scene with the song ‘playground’ released in the compilation album «Come out and play».

Six members of the Atomic Bubbles have been working quietly and diligently since the 1990s, waiting for getting a slice of the cake.
A Hong Kong legendary big band has been lurking for so long to return to the stage.
Atomic Bubbles - All six people in the band will reappear in the indie-scene to play the charming masterpieces with love and passion under the starry night on 5th July.
Hit songs and hot dance will intertwine with tears. It will be the most enchanting night in history for the virgin night and the dissipation of Walden will be dedicated to you on time.
