JACK SAVORETTI: SINGER/SONGWRITER

Jack Savoretti:  Released his 3rd studio album June 2012 BEFORE THE STORM to European markets. I love this guy! He says it all for me, his poetic lyric resonates the softness of a whisper and reminds me of the great Bob Dylan. His vocals are reminiscent of Amos Lee with a pinch of Chris Cornell.  Savoretti can belt a tune infused with his gravely depth, that takes one into the melodious lyric of the song  like that of ‘Vagabond’, ‘Knock Knock’,’ Last Call’, ‘Breaking the Rules’ and more.
 As a young man he wrote poetry, and was encouraged by his Mother to put his words to music. He was "surprised how much more people listen to you when you are singing than if you read a poem," he admits. "After that, I couldn’t stop, it was constant writing, every day, it became almost a form of conversation, the way I interact with the world."
Savoretti is a London native of English/Italian decent who later moved to Switzerland where he went to an The American School on the border of Italy/Switzerland. He claims this is where his accent which he calls ‘transatlantic mutt’ comes from.
ITUNES recently released a single from the album ‘LIFETIME’ out  May 19, 2013. This album is great! A must have from Savoretti and his band ‘Dirty Romances’, their best effort so far.
