"You may recognise his voice from indie-favourite Parquet Courts but in his solo discography, A Savage slows it down and embraces the folk sensibilities we’re loving seeing more and more of these days. Wistful and incredibly witty his solo work is definitely worth checking out 🔥 He says “I imagine myself playing these songs in a small club that is slowly burning,” but we can luckily catch him playing them at Others Way fire free, definitely one of the acts I’m most excited for!” - Lucia

Parquet Courts
co-frontman A. Savage returns with his second solo album, Several Songs About Fire. His first solo outing on Rough Trade was produced by John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding), and features a dazzling array of guests, including Cate Le Bon, and members of Kamikaze Palm Tree, Caroline, and Ultimate Painting. Featuring singles Elvis In The Army and Thanksgiving Prayer, you already know you're gonna love this flippin' rekkid! - Flying Out 

Celebrated visual artist and dynamic co-frontman of seminal punk band Parquet Courts, A. Savage announces his second solo album – and first for Rough Trade – with "Elvis in the Army", a tightly-wound return to form that places us in a subterranean venue where a livid cymbal raises the room’s blood pressure. A buzzing meditation on places present and past, the track showcases Savage's gifts as a lyricist, what album producer John Parish calls “an emotional openness guarded by a laconic wit.”
