Singer-songwriter Jack Savoretti takes a look at some of his favourite songs from some of the biggest stars in music including Aretha Franklin, Van Morrsion, Elton John and more!

Join Jack as he celebrates new beginnings in the Year of the Tiger.

Jack鈥檚 no stranger to Radio 2 having played numerous live sessions including Ken Bruce鈥檚 Radio 2 Piano Room, Dermot O鈥橪eary (Saturday 8am 鈥� 10pm) and Jo Whiley (7pm 鈥� 9pm)

And more recently his own show - Jack Savoretti's Seasonal Soundtrack.

The Italian-British acoustic singer began playing guitar at the age of 16 and he鈥檚 released six studio albums to date. His most recent album, 鈥楯ack Savoretti - Europiana鈥� is the follow-up to Jack鈥檚 breakthrough 2019 album 鈥楽inging to Strangers鈥�, his third consecutive gold seller and first UK number one. While that album was recorded in Rome at Ennio Morricone鈥檚 studio, this new disc was conceived in between lockdowns at Jack鈥檚 Oxfordshire home.

Once again, Cam Blackwood (George Ezra, London Grammar, Florence & The Machine), has produced the album, recorded at Abbey Road with Jack鈥檚 longtime touring band. John Oates plays guitar and sang backing vocals, from Nashville, on the lush 鈥榃hen You鈥檙e Lonely鈥�.
