Having operated as a solo act for over two years, Albuquerque, NM’s Sam Wilmot has transformed Savings into a four-piece for upcoming EP Get Well Soon, as 2023 springs to life.
Deploying a smart and immersive blend of pop-punk stylings, Savings nods to the 00s purveyors of the genre and nu punk, while shading the sound with elements of Midwest emo. The end-product is an emotionally charged, hook-laden affair with vulnerable lyricism and soaring choruses.
Since the project’s inception in 2020, Wilmot has drawn on inspiration from the likes of Free Throw, Neck Deep, Hot Mulligan and Movements. Singles such as “Drown”, “I Hope November Hurts for You” and “Cheers”, featuring Right On, Kid’s Zach Rose have shown Savings’ articulate and highly engaging alternative sound.
Fall 2022 saw the release of “I Found a Date for the Holidays, Maybe”, a heart-on-sleeve, introspective offering, touching on subjects of mental health.
Last month, the band unveiled “American Psycho”, with new single “You Mean To Tell Me a Head of Lettuce Sunk This Ship?” continuing the band’s trajectory of intricate and hooky emo-punk anthems, as they move towards new EP, Get Well Soon. On the new collection, Wilmot and co. wear their heart on their sleeve as they tackle the highs and lows of modern life in candid and cathartic style.
