and just for the fun of it, here’s a bonus: the best album you did not hear this year:
jack savoretti – harder than easy.
…to ease the pain for those of you who eagerly anticipate the release of the upcoming “harder than easy” album. for those of you who are not aware, the album has been postpone until the beginning of next year. sad new for those waiting, but also a great chance for jack to establish himself in the u.s.
here are two songs that you can get for free, one from a magazine’s website (can’t remember which one at the moment) and the other one you get by signing up for the newsletter at jack’s official website.
jack savoretti – him & her
jack savoretti – song for a friend
these songs are not on the promo cd that i have, but it might ease the pain a little bit. enjoy.
note. there is a preview of a new song up on jack’s myspace page.
i’m happy! i got the promo cd of jack savoretti’s new album “harder than easy”. unfortunately i’m not allowed to say too much about it yet. the review will be up at www.melodic.net in the middle or end of june. let’s just say it’s worth the wait. it is however really nice to get an album almost two months ahead of release date.
in the meantime, head over to www.melodic.net and check out the interview i did with jack. it covers both the upcoming album and life in general. it’s nice to be a music writer sometimes. now if only i could get paid for it…
