Jack Savoretti To Perform At Ambition Gig In Aid Of Treehouse Charity
Singer songwriter Jack Savoretti will be performing at the Ambition Gig at London’s KOKO on 03 June to help raise money for TreeHouse, the national charity for autism education.
Jack will be supporting renowned singer songwriter Newton Falkner and the night will end with a special DJ set from popular Radio 1 DJ, Greg James.
Savoretti’s first album ‘Between The Minds’ debuted in the UK at number 5 on the indie chart, reached number 7 in the Amazon charts and was top 20 in the iTunes chart. The album was Radio 2’s “Album of the Week” and Radio 1’s Jo Whiley selected Jack as one of her 6 artists for the Jo Whiley Inside Track on VH1. It is due to be released in North America September 14th.
Jack’s music has featured on TV shows such as Grey’s Anatomy and One Tree Hill. He has also performed on tours across Europe with Corinne Bailey Rai, Gavin de Graw and Shawn Colvin.
Jack has just returned from NYC where he played at the City Winery to kick off his press campaign for the US launch.
Jack Said: ‘Having lived with autism in my own family, it is an honour and a privilege to be working with an organisation like TreeHouse. It is going to be a fantastic night for everybody involved and hopefully will bring more awareness to the cause.’
Newton said: “I’m really looking forward to headlining at the Ambition Gig for TreeHouse, a charity which reaches out to young people with autism and their families. I’ll be playing with some awesome acts on the night and to do all of this for such a great cause makes it even better – should be a good night!”
Hannah Barham, TreeHouse Fundraiser, said:”Last year’s Ambition Gig was a magical night for TreeHouse enjoyed by nearly 1500 music lovers and this year is going to be even bigger! The money we raise will help us to reach out to the 1 in 100 young people with autism in the UK - young people who, without the right education and support, aren’t able to realise anywhere near their full potential. We are thrilled to have such an incredible line up and we know that Newton Falkner, Jack Savoretti and Greg James are going to put on a fantastic show. So book your tickets now to make sure you don’t miss out!”
