It’s official: Los Bitchos have returned, dropping the slick disco banger “La Bomba.”
Inspired by Nile Rodgers and Anita Ward, the track stays true to the group’s signature sound — a swirling concoction of vibrant disco energy, Eighties Turkish psych-rock, and pure funk. Check out the shimmering video below, where the quartet holds a crystal ball and dances in front of a full moon.
“‘La Bomba’ is a burst of energy and power!” the band said in a statement. “The disco era influence is quite evident in this song, and I think the bassline sets the tone perfectly for this …We wanted to keep this as close to a classic pop structure as possible, everything straight to the point. The cherries on top are the little ping pong drum sounds (think “Ring My Bell”). They just make the track go off and totally emulate the feelings of euphoria and pure energy running through it.”
Los Bitchos also revealed North American tour dates. They’ll head there in late fall, stopping in major cities like New York, Seattle, and Los Angeles. Check out the dates below.
The all-women group — guitarist Serra Petale, Agustina Ruiz on synth/keytar, bassist Josefine Jonsson, and drummer Nic Crawshaw — hail from Australia, England, Uruguay, and Sweden, and are currently based in London.
In 2022, they released their debut, Let the Festivities Begin! produced by Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos. Rolling Stone named them an Artist You Need to Know, and we’re excited for what’s next.
