Robert Plant - Saving Grace - Indie Edit

Robert Plant’s 'Saving Grace' is the first album featuring a new band of distinguished players, which he calls “a song book of the lost and found”.  

The genesis of 'Saving Grace' began during the lockdown in “The Shire”, when Plant’s customary wandering was all but forbidden. It was in the English countryside that Robert Plant connected closely to this diverse group of musicians, who, through their own experiences, had a shared lean towards his much-loved corners of evocative song.  

Together, Plant and Saving Grace – vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, cellist Barney Morse-Brown – have spent the past six years growing into a wide-ranging workshop of styles and personalities, weaving through time and circumstance with joy and abandon. 
 
“We laugh a lot, really.  I think that suits me. I like laughing,” Plant says.  “You know, I can't find any reason to be too serious about anything.  I'm not jaded.  The sweetness of the whole thing… These are sweet people and they are playing out all the stuff that they could never get out before.  They have become unique stylists and together they seem to have landed in a most interesting place.”

'Saving Grace' breathes fresh life into a collection of century-old music.  A treasury of songs featured back in time by Memphis Minnie, Bob Mosley (Moby Grape), Blind Willie Johnson, The Low Anthem, Martha Scanlan, Sarah Siskind, and Mimi Parker and Alan Sparhawk’s Low.
