We are thrilled to welcome Jack Savoretti to Canterbury Festival celebrating Singing to Strangers, his sixth studio album and kicking off his autumn tour. Since the release of Between The Minds in 2007, the English-Italian singer-songwriter has been rising to prominence with his unique blend of poetic folk and big-band ballads. Released in March, Singing to Strangers has received glowing reviews with hit single Candlelight selected as BBC Radio 2’s Record of The Week, and the album achieving number one in the charts for six weeks. Building on the success of his previous two gold discs - Written in Scars and Sleep No More Savoretti’s newest work explores the musician’s heritage, giving thanks and paying homage to the French, Spanish and Italian music of the Fifties and Sixties. With songs co-written with the likes of Bob Dylan and Kylie Minogue, and strings scored by David Rossi (Goldfrapp, Coldplay), Singing to Strangers is a unique and beguiling rhapsody, packed full of choral harmonies, sinuous guitar and heartfelt rasp. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to experience a must-see artist live in the heart of Canterbury.
