Bar Italia makes a compelling return with their latest offering, “Cowbella,” a vibrant summer anthem and their first new music since 2024’s The Twats EP. This track features a captivating interplay of vocals from Nina Cristante, Jezmi Tarik Fehmi, and Sam Fenton, evolving over a dynamic, morphing rock soundscape that culminates in an explosive and haunting crescendo. It’s a multi-faceted creation that distinctly bears the band’s unique sonic signature.
Accompanying the new single, the London trio has revealed a significant roster of European and North American tour dates for October and November. These highly anticipated shows will take them to major cities including London, Milan, Barcelona, Paris, Los Angeles, New York, and Toronto. This extensive run follows an intimate, sold-out preview of new material at London’s 93 Feet East on Thursday, June 19th.
The past two years have seen Bar Italia rapidly ascend, releasing two critically acclaimed albums, Tracey Denim and The Twits, within months of each other on Matador. They have since captivated audiences worldwide with over 160 headline performances across 2023-2024, from Istanbul to Tokyo, including sold-out multi-night engagements in New York and Los Angeles, and electrifying sets at festivals like Glastonbury and Coachella. The band has solidified its reputation as a formidable live act, equally adept at igniting mosh pits and creating moments of profound intimacy.
