Following his most recent single, Bada Bing, Bada Boom, featuring the formidable Miles Kane (The Last Shadow Puppets), and collaborations with Italian legend, Zucchero, and Australian pop royalty, Natalie Imbruglia, Jack Savoretti returns to the UK for a solo unplugged tour at some of his favourite venues, including O2 Academy in Bournemouth on Wednesday 5 March.
The dark yet playful record blends all the recognisable roughness and elegance of Jack’s voice with the grit and attitude of Miles’s guitar and vocal performance creating a fun and combustive record perfect to light the last of the summer nights.
With his 8th album, Miss Italia, Jack continues to forge a singular path. While few artists manage to make an 8th album, even less do so in a different language and to such critical acclaim.
Miss Italia came at an important moment in Jack’s life, as his Italian father had recently passed away.
“My father was the anchor that tied me to Italy, the connection to my roots that I felt I was at risk of losing without him,” explains Jack. “So I went back to school.
“I didn’t want to imitate Italian music, I wanted to make it my own, combining everything I had learned over almost 20 years of experience from working in America, England, and Italy, merging Anglo-Saxon singer-songwriting with Italian to create something unique.
“I first had to learn to write in Italian before making MY album in Italian.”
