JACK SAVORETTI RETURNS WITH A BRAND NEW SINGLE, ‘DO IT FOR LOVE’ AND ANNOUNCES FIRST EVER HEADLINE SHOW AT LONDON’S PRESTIGIOUS ROYAL ALBERT HALL ON APRIL 23, 2026
Jack Savoretti’s brand new single, ‘Do It For Love’, is a Morricone-meets-Bassey torch song, channeling the sweeping drama and soulful grandeur that has become a hallmark of his songwriting. The release is accompanied by a black-and-white live video, shot in a single take at Eastcote Studios in West London, capturing Jack and his band in a raw, unfiltered performance.
The track was co-written with Jack’s longtime friend Miles Kane, with the pair drawing unlikely inspiration from a vintage clip of Julio Iglesias and Charles Aznavour performing Com'è triste Venezia on television.
“We were both suited up, having just fled an awards ceremony,” Jack recalls. “And we thought: we should do a song like that.” A few months later, the duo had conjured up Do It For Love – a love song wrapped in midnight moods, and wee-hours jazz noir.
It was only on stage in Eastern Europe, a few weeks after recording, that the song’s true meaning crystallised for Jack:“This song is me explaining to the audience why we’re up there. The minute my piano started, the minute I said the first line – ‘lost myself in a wishing well / wish that I had someone to tell / all these things I’ve done / I did them for love’ – I got it. It’s an anthem for anyone who keeps going, who refuses to take no for an answer. You can romanticise why we write and sing and perform songs. You can try to define it. But essentially: it’s because we love doing it. That’s always our love.”
Alongside the release of the single, Jack Savoretti has announced his first ever headline show at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall on April 23, 2026. The one-night-only performance will celebrate 20 years since the release of his debut – and promises a career-spanning show befitting one of Britain’s most distinctive and enduring voices.
Do It For Love offers the first glimpse of what lies ahead, with more new music expected in 2025 and beyond.

Over the course of his career, Jack has sold in excess of a million albums worldwide, amassed more than a billion streams and sold half a million tickets worldwide.
