Europiana (LP)

'Europiana' is the follow-up to Jack's breakthrough 2019 album 'Singing to Strangers', his third consecutive gold seller and first UK number one. While that album was recorded in Rome at Ennio Morricone's studio, this new disc was conceived in between lockdowns at Jack's Oxfordshire home. "Europiana isn't a sound. It's references and inspirations and the emotions they evoke," Jack says. "It's the music of my childhood summers, remade for today."

Once again, Cam Blackwood (George Ezra, London Grammar, Florence & The Machine), has produced the album, recorded late last year at Abbey Road with Jack's longtime touring band. John Oates plays guitar and sang backing vocals, from Nashville, on the lush 'When You're Lonely'.

Put on your dancing shoes for the funky lead single, the disco fuelled 'Who's Hurting Who', featuring Nile Rodgers. "Nile brings groove, glamour and chic that is everything that Europiana is," Jack Savoretti says. "'Europiana wouldn't exist without Nile Rodgers!"
Much of the 11-track album concerns itself with family, friendship and the precarious nature of love so it's not surprising that Jack's wife and children sing on a few tracks.
