Savages have well and truly taken on 2016. For all its gloom and doom, Savages have barked right back at it with enough fury and passion to take back control. Now it seems that after that, they’re about to take a break for a while.
Speaking to Loud & Quiet this month, indisputable modern icon Jehnny Beth has talked about future plans for the heavy-hitting outfit, explaining that “We’re going to take a break from Savages because we haven’t taken a break between the two records at all – we took a month, I remember”
Whilst the members are set to all explore other opportunities away from the band, Jehnny in particular has elaborated on some collaborations in the pipeline that she’s working on. Which sound bloody great if you ask us.
“I have a collaboration I have lined up, really cool stuff, which I can’t talk about now but some are going to be revealed in January. I think it’s going to be for me, collaborating with new people. I’ve kept writing a lot so I’ve got a lot of songs right now that I don’t know what I’m going to do with yet. They’re for something else, not Savages. Pursuing the collaborations where people have reached out and want to work with me, that’s what’s going to happen. I’m very excited.”
Big January then. It’ll be exactly a year since Savages released their latest album ‘Adore Life’ which saw then head around the globe bringing their emphatic live show to the biggest stages of their career.
