Half-English, half-Italian and Swiss-educated, the nomadic Jack Savoretti has returned to British shores recently after a stint in America recording and promoting new material. I had the privilege of interviewing Jack back in 2009 , and he seems to have been a busy bee since then with tracks featured on hit TV shows One Tree Hill, Greek and Grey's Anatomy in the USA. With the announcement of a third album in the works, Jack has just released a video for a brand new track called 'Come Shine A Light'. It's a lovely little montage, created [...]

Photo by Maria Mochnacz Jack Savoretti was a new face on Rarities back in April, when I blogged about his musical background and debut album, Between the Minds (read that post here ). I have been a fan of his music for the last couple of years, having first heard a couple of his tracks on episodes of One Tree Hill and Grey's Anatomy , so I was very happy to hear a new song of [...]
Pop-folk stars Newton Faulker and Jack Savoretti have announced a very special one-off charity show at London's KOKO on Thursday 3rd June. The show, which will also feature a DJ set from BBC Radio 1's Greg James , is an Ambition Gig in aid of the wonderful TreeHouse Charity , the UK's national charity for autism education. TreeHouse runs a special school for children and young people with autism; provides information and training for parents and professionals; commissions research and campaigns for change. Now, if I'm honest, I was sold [...]
Here's a newcomer to Rarities. Jack Savoretti is a half-English, half-Italian singer-songwriter who spent his youth travelling around Europe, where he picked up an accent that he describes as "transatlantic mutt". His lucky break came after his hairdresser said she cut the hair of Natalie Imbruglia's manager and offered to pass on some of his music. You might recognise his voice from American TV shows such as Grey's Anatomy and One Tree Hill , the latter of which he has featured on many times. He has been hailed by music industry insiders [...]

The half-English, half-Italian singer-songwriter Jack Savoretti is my most played new artist of the last few moments. I immediately loved his vocals and songwriting when I heard it in One Tree Hill. Jack is currently signed to De Angelis Records which was set up by Anne Barrett who is also the former manager of Natalie Imbruglia. Jack didn't pick up a guitar until he was 16. He was brought up most of my child hood in London before moving to a Swiss mountain village. Savoretti released his first single on 9 October 2006, called Without. Savoretti was then spotted by [...]
De muziek van Londenaar Jack Savoretti was onder meer te horen in populaire tv-series als One Tree Hill en Grey's Anatomy. In Europa toerde hij met Gavin DeGraw . Ik had nog nooit van Savoretti gehoord, maar hij maakt fraaie folkliedjes. En hij heeft een stem die aankomt. En voor je het weet zing je mee. Savoretti's tweede cd heet Harder than Easy. MP3: Jack Savoretti - Russian Roulette Jack Savoretti op MySpace [...]

With a voice and a face like that who can deny Jack Savoretti . He had me at "Harder than Easy" you can buy his album on iTunes Martin sent me the "Between the Minds" unplugged album and boy does it pull at my heart strings. This song "Without" has been playing non-stop on my iTunes today. I always find the words in songs that I can't express myself. Sometimes I wish there was a rewind button and we could just start all over. Still learning to move forward [...]

We're two months into 2007, and there hasn't been much sign of the singer-songwriter that will be proclaimed as the saviour of the tradition for the year; that is until now…accompanied by the usual hyperbole (comparisons to usual likes of Damien Rice, Jeff Buckley, Nick Drake etc), Jack Savoretti is currently riding the wave of the music man's publicity machine. His lucky break came after his hairdresser said she cut the hair of Natalie Imbruglia's manager and offered to pass on some of his music. After being invited to the De Angelis offices with his guitar [...]
