I've been meaning to catch local New Yorkers Savoir Adore for some time now, but have missed them for various reasons. Luckily, I got to Chess Club's Friday CMJ showcase at Public Assembly in time to see them drop their brand of indie rock on a rapt crowd. The mix of male and female vocals could tempt you to put this band in the cutesy box that holds bands like Jenny and Johnny, She and Him, or Rilo Kiley. Don't do it. Savoir Adore ripped through enough blistering guitar solos - including one particularly [...]
My first stop for CMJ Day 3 was Bowery Electric where I caught Savoir Adore. Savoir Adore is one of my favorite Brooklyn bands with their sweet, new wave, quirky fairy tale sound. Their set this evening was solid with the only negative thing being that they were plagued by sound problems for the first [...]

Brooklyn based power-duo of Paul Hammer and Deidre Muro, known as Savoir Adore, certainly knows how to rock in one of the most uniquely indie styles to hit the streets yet. Organs, electrics, and usually with almost more tambourine than drums; They weave it all together with an unimaginably catchy kitschy vibe. Incredible vocals and [...]

I don't have time in this blog marathon to write up the interview. So I'm just going to post the audio file. I caught up with Savoir Adore just after their barnstorming show at The Social. Paul shattered a glass, I mocked Deidre's name pronunciation. There is some random interlopers as well. I don't know who he is. Drummer Timmy had some choice words. They were also very kind to give me some CDs which I proceeded to lose then find again to [...]
[Released on Cantora] Words: Gareth O'Malley There's one thing about this album that's still puzzling us. It was released in the U.S. almost a year ago, and it saw the light of day here last week. How the hell did it not get picked up for U.K. distribution earlier? We ask this because - and there are no two ways about it - what we have here is one of the best pop records of the year. Yep, we said it. It's the kind of album that could explode given the right exposure, and [...]
"Early Bird" and "Honestly" (Free Downloads) By Savoir Adore. Rarely does a band arrive on the scene as fully formed as genre bending Brooklyn based duo Savoir Adore. However the band apparently formed completely by accident when multi instrumental friends Paul Hammer and Deidre Muro challenged each other to write music purely for their own enjoyment. With their début album "In the Wooded Forest" [...]
Brooklyn duo Savoir Adore 's debut album 'In the Wooded Forest' is out now via Cantora Records. MP3: 'Honestly' 'Early Bird' More at Cantora Records .
You could well formulate a theory that 'We Talk Like Machines' is the key to understanding New York band Savoir Adore and their debut In The Wooded Forest . That song's conflation of man and machine, so reflective of life in the 21st century, also underlines the graceful fusion of naturalistic and electronic elements that the band's album consists of. Further to our theory, it's tempting to imagine that each side of the band's sound reflects the personality of one of Savoir Adore's core members, Deidre Muro and Paul Hammer. How far that's really case, though, is really [...]
Indie darlings Savoir Adore — Paul Hammer and Deidre Muro — know a thing or two when it comes to writing songs bristling with flowing melodies and synth-tastic new wave textures. Still riding high on the success of last fall's In the Wooded Forest issued on the mighty Cantora indie, the duo have kindly shared the telling ballad "Honestly" with the rest of the world. This tender acoustic track song is simply adore-able . Sorry! Savoir Adore - "Honestly"
I've recently been getting into this Brooklyn duo Savoir Adore . The group's debut album In The Wooded Forrest features 14 tracks of poppy goodness eerily similar to Mates of State with catchy guitar licks and less organ. Below you can check out jangly new tune from the group called "Honestly". Heading to the Savior Adore website will also find you with 3 more free MP3s for the price of an email . Pick up the debut LP on September 6th via Cantora Records . ( via ) Download: Savoir Adore [...]
One of the highlights from Brooklyn duo Savoir Adore 's forthcoming debut album, 'In The Wooded Forest', 'Honestly' has been made available as a free taster of the record, which is out September 6th via Cantora. Savoir Adore - Honestly by Music Fan's Mic
