He introduces us to his new album 'Harder Than Easy'...
Gigwise has hooked with half English, half Italian singer-songwriter Jack Savoretti to bring you a triple header of exclusives about his plans for his second album, the follow up to 2007's 'Between The Minds', which is due out this summer.
The first exclusive is the details of the album itself, which will be called 'Harder Than Easy' and is set for release on July 6th. As a taster of the new material Jack has kindly given us a free download of the track 'Him And Her' to give to all our readers. You can download the track by clicking HERE.
Finally, we have the first of several video blogs from the man himself where he discusses the new material and the sounds he has incorporated into 'Harder Than Easy'. You can watch the video below.
Jack Savoretti UK tour & Album Release Dates Postponed!
Hey Fans, We at De Angelis Records have made the hard decision to postpone the UK release & tour after a huge opportunity for Jack has presented itself in America. This represents a wonderful chance in Jacks career and we are excited to capitalize on the recognition Jack and his music deserve. We want to apologize to fans for canceling the tour and we can assure you that Jack will be back in a few months to give the UK his undivided attention. Our special thanks go to you all that have supported him throughout his career so far and we hope you understand us making this difficult yet necessary decision during this important time. Keep in touch with Jack via www.myspace.com/jacksavoretti or http://twitter.com/JackSavoretti to stay up to date with his progress! Sincerely, The De Angelis Records Team.
The latest full-length album from British troubadour Jack Savoretti, Harder Than Easy, will be released digitally in the U.S. on September 15th via De Angelis Records. Savorettis music has been described as having a raw, soulful, yearning edge (Daily Telegraph) and Burn Magazine notes Not since Simon & Garfunkel has a gifted songwriter captured the fragility of the human condition so eloquently.
At just 25 years old, Jack Savoretti is something special: strikingly handsome, his sinuous, emotive voice synthesizes with his fluid, inventive guitar playing such that you can hardly tell where one begins and the other ends.
A few standout tracks from Harder Than Easy and earlier in Savorettis career have been heard on various television shows and films; One Day appears on the Post Grad film soundtrack, and Wonder will be featured on an upcoming episode of One Tree Hill, airing September 21st on the CW. Songs from Jack Savorettis first album, Between the Minds, have appeared in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, One Tree Hill, and The Cleaner.
Look for Harder Than Easy on iTunes on September 15th, and be sure to catch Jack Savoretti on tour this fall and winter.

Thanks for the info & welcome. I was thinking; I don't think I can wait for the hard copy and I just may have to buy the iTunes version bc I've been waiting for some time for his sophomore album. I'll just wait till Tuesday and see if the itunes version includes the digi booklet bc some albums do that. Knowing me I'll end up buying both versions bc I do that with some of my fave artist bc sometimes I just have to have that album instantly.

welcom elo84!! thanks for joining! hope you stick around! you can listen to the whole album on his myspace!! there is a player thing and it has the whole album!
well Ive listen to it and I really like it only I find it a bit too country style sometimes (too much time in the US for jack I suppose lol). Plus I was really hoping to find Rosalin and lucy on it :) But I still like it it's just that I prefer when he plays stripped (no pun I swear) like in the unplugged album.
