Talking of eighties pop sensations, Savoy are also releasing a best of. Who, you say? Well, while Savoy aren't an eighties pop sensation, one of their key members is - he being Pal Waaktaar, one third of and the main songwriter in a-ha. Waaktaar's side project with his American wife, filmmaker Lauren Savoy, and drummer Frode Unneland, may not be so well known in the UK, but they have enjoyed quite a bit of success in his home country Norway, and those of you just a little bit curious about the project will be able to sample a collection of their songs when 'Savoy Songbook Vol.1' is released via Genepool Records on 5 May. The band will also play the Royal Albert Hall in London on 24 May with supporter by fellow a-haers Magne Furuholmen and Morten Harket who will both play solo slots at the show.
