In celebration of his new album ‘Europiana’, Savoretti will be taking to the stage at Vinilo Record Store on September 14. ‘Europiana’ is the follow-up to his breakthrough 2019 album ‘Singing to Strangers’, his third consecutive gold seller and first UK number one. While Singing to Strangers was recorded in Rome at Ennio Morricone’s studio, the new disc was conceived in between lockdowns at his home in Oxfordshire. Cam Blackwood (George Ezra, London Grammar, Florence & The Machine), has produced the album which was recorded late last year at Abbey Road with Jack’s longtime touring band.
ALABAMA 3 return with a new single and video and news of a new album and dates to follow.
‘Whacked’ is the first new music from the Brixton mavericks since the tragic passing of The Very Reverend D Wayne Love in May 2019.
“’Whacked’ was recorded in the early weeks of the first UK lockdown in March 2020,” remembers producer Cam Blackwood (George Ezra, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes). “I think the hedonistic spirit of the song was amplified a million times by the fact we were making the record remotely – with the musicians in the band recording their parts at home, sending them all to me to collate and arrange – then I would send the instrumental track to Larry to record vocals on. The energy was pretty insane – we were like caged animals desperate to get out.
