bar italia present Some Like It Hot, a vivid album shaped by relentless touring and a leap from underground obscurity to global stages. Across 160 shows worldwide, the London trio honed their chemistry into a sound that moves easily between hushed intimacy and festival-scale anthems.

The record brims with tension and release: explosive choruses (‘omni shambles’, ‘Eyepatch’) sit alongside the yearning waltz of ‘bad reputation’ and the fevered abandon of ‘rooster’. ‘Lioness’ unfurls with shimmering 12-string new wave splendour, pushing the band into widescreen territory.

Nina Cristante, Jezmi Tarik Fehmi and Sam Fenton each bring distinct voices that entwine into a restless whole — from honeyed melodies to brooding baritone and soaring tenor. Their interplay fuels songs that twist quirks into towering hooks, blurring the lines between performance and emotion.

With Some Like It Hot, bar italia embrace scale and spectacle without losing their edge.
