Savages To Take A Break, Jehnny Beth Hints At Future Collaborations

Savages are set to take a break in the new year.
In a recent interview with Loud And Quietvocalist Jehnny Beth revealed that the band, who last month played their biggest headline show to date at the O2 Academy Brixton, would be taking time apart in order to focus on other projects, including collaborations that the singer will unveil next month.
"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. Now is a good time for us to break apart and do other projects. I have collaborations I have lined up, really cool stuff, which I can’t talk about now but some are going to be revealed in January. So 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.
The four-piece released their Mercury Prize-nominated sophomore album, 'Adore Life', at the start of the year. Check out the video for Adore, lifted from it, below.
