bar italia unveil new single, "jelsy" and announce forthcoming exhibition in London
bar italia have released new single and video “Jelsy”, taken from their forthcoming second full length of year, The Twits.
Led by the group’s three-way vocal dynamic, “Jelsy” plays out like a conversation between friends over over wistful, buzzing country blues.
Additionally, bar italia have announced a group show of drawings to take place on 27 October at the Frieze exhibition space at No.9 Cork Street, with the public view at 6pm-8pm. ‘drawings by bar italia’ will display sketches by the band members made around the writing of the new album and informed by its world.
“Jelsy” follows first single “my little tony” which announced the forthcoming album, last month.
The Twits was recorded by the trio over eight weeks from February 2023 in a makeshift home studio in Mallorca, and was mixed by Marta Salogni. The album follows on from the highly praised Tracey Denim, which was released in May.
The Twits is set for release on 3 November via Matador Records, and is available to pre-order . For more information on their forthcoming live dates, visit baritaliaa.com.
