A sense of rootedness is at the heart of Anna B Savage’s third record You and i are Earth, a record that is as much about healing as it is an unbowed sense of curiosity, and, more simply, “a love letter to a man and to Ireland.”
Savage’s connection to Ireland goes back over a decade, falling in love with the work of Seamus Heaney during a poetry Masters, then moving to Dublin in 2020 to study a Masters in Music. Since then Anna has spent much of her time on the west coast of Ireland, dipping back to her home in County Donegal between bouts of touring - this year supporting The Staves and St Vincent.
It’s fitting then, that You & i are Earth folds in some of Ireland’s brightest contemporary musicians, Kate Ellis and Caimin Gilmore (Crash Ensemble), Cormac MacDiarmada (Lankum) and Anna Mieke contributing to the album, all tied together by producer John ‘Spud’ Murphy (Lankum).
Following her critically acclaimed albums A Common Turn and in|FLUX - You & i are Earth arrives January 24, 2025.
Anna B Savage is a singer and songwriter, originally from London, currently based in Ireland. Since her emergence in 2015 she has released three EPs and three critically acclaimed albums with support from NPR, The Guardian, and Rolling Stone, amongst many others. She has also collaborated on recordings with artists including Son Lux, Orbital, Hamish Hawk, and Mike Lindsay (Tunng / LUMP).
