Product Description: 'Some Like It Hot' is a 1959 film starring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon about a group of rogue musicians on the adventure path. It is funny, sexy, rambunctious and evergreen - a showcase of a triple-threat cast at full-throttle. 'Some Like It Hot' is also the new album by London three-piece Bar Italia. Certain parallels are perhaps not accidental. It pulses with romance, intrigue, self-discovery and rapture over lustful rockers, spellbinding folk pop, punch-drunk ballads and undefinable moments that sneak up on you like a burst of 5pm sunshine. The record is the culmination of the joint inner world of Nina Cristante, Jezmi Tarik Fehmi and Sam Fenton - three singer-songwriters who have transcended their underground roots to embrace a bold, widescreen horizon.The synergy of this three-way blunt rotation is embedded in the trio's DNA. Cristante brings a studied actors' sensibility to vocals ranging from honeyed ('Marble Arch') to hell-bent and possessed ('rooster'). Fehmi ranges from airy, brooding baritone ('Lioness') to mic-chewing megaphone histrionics ('omni shambles'). Fenton, a wispy tenor, can veer between mystical melodicism and soaring blue-eyed soul within the same 8 bars ('Plastered').The cultivation of their sound was chiseled via a relentless writing and touring schedule. With over 160 shows worldwide across 2023-2024, they dispelled any mystique by becoming an exhibitionist and muscular five-piece that's equally comfortable at festival mosh-pit incitement and moments of pin-drop intimacy.Bar Italia have married their serious and heartfelt subject matter with a joy in showmanship. These are songs that twist their quirks into huge choruses, playing with self-identity, emotion and performance until the lines blur. That Hollywood classic from which the album takes it's name ends with the immortal line: "Well, nobody's perfect." This, however, comes pretty close.
