Singing to Strangers is the sixth studio album by English singer-songwriter Jack Savoretti, released on 15 March 2019 through BMG.[2] The lead single, "Candlelight", was released in December 2018.[3] Savoretti embarked on a European tour in support of the album.[3] It debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart with 32,264 units.[4] It is Savoretti's final album for BMG.
Savoretti named the album Singing to Strangers because, he said, "That's my job: I sing to strangers. That's what I've spent most of my life doing. Singing to friends and family and fans; they're already onside, so you can, to some extent sing anything. Strangers need convincing, touching, connection."[5]
The album was recorded in Rome at Ennio Morricone's studio in mid-2018 with producer Cam Blackwood.[2] In addition to writing with Kylie Minogue,[6] Savoretti co-wrote a track with Bob Dylan titled "Touchy Situation".[7]
