Netflix to Release Documentary on Singer Tony Lommi in December 2025
Netflix has announced the upcoming release of a new documentary centered on the life and career of rising British soul singer Tony Lommi, set to premiere globally in December 2025. Titled “Lommi: A Voice Through the Fire”, the film promises an intimate look at the enigmatic artist’s journey from his humble beginnings in Birmingham to becoming one of the most talked-about voices in contemporary music. The documentary is directed by Emmy-winning filmmaker Ava Mercer, known for her evocative music biopics and storytelling rooted in raw authenticity.
The project includes never-before-seen footage from Lommi’s childhood, exclusive interviews with family, friends, and collaborators, and behind-the-scenes clips from studio sessions and world tours. Lommi, who skyrocketed to fame in 2022 with his breakout single “Ashes to Echoes,” is known for blending retro soul, modern jazz, and deeply personal lyrics. The film is said to explore the emotional weight behind his music, including struggles with anxiety and the loss of his older brother, which inspired much of his debut album.
Netflix executives describe the documentary as both “poetic and unflinching,” offering fans a rare glimpse into the mind of an artist still shaping his legacy. With growing buzz online and early praise from industry insiders who previewed clips at Cannes, “Lommi: A Voice Through the Fire” is expected to be one of the streaming giant’s most anticipated music releases
