Bar Italia
One of the UK’s most beloved rock bands in recent years, Bar Italia comes to Tokyo to showcase their latest record, Some Like It Hot. Their new sound wields clashing guitars, dramatic strings and melancholic duets that stylistically call back to the annals of UK guitar rock. After releasing two albums on Dean Blunt’s label World Music, plus singles and EPs online, Bar Italia gained a cult following while remaining an enigmatic presence over London’s music scene.
In Japan, they won the #1 spot on Big Love Records’ year-end chart, a globally recognised indie music source. In 2023 the band signed with Matador, all while touring sold-out shows and performing at major festivals like Glastonbury and Coachella. And this winter, they’re coming to Tokyo’s Liquidroom (and Osaka’s Shangri-La).
