Saturday Night, Sunday Morning (Jake Bugg album)
Saturday Night, Sunday Morning is the fifth studio album by British singer-songwriter Jake Bugg, released on August 20, 2021, through RCA Records. The album marks a return to a more guitar-driven sound compared to his previous album, Hearts That Strain, and explores themes of love, loss, and the passage of time.
The title itself, Saturday Night, Sunday Morning, is a reference to the Alan Sillitoe novel of the same name, and subsequently the 1960 film adaptation. Bugg has stated that the title reflects the contrasting moods and experiences of youth: the excitement and freedom of the weekend alongside the comedown and introspection that often follows.
The album features production from several notable producers, including Steve Mac, Andrew Watt, and Jamie Hartman. Singles released prior to the album's release included "All I Need," "Lost," "Kiss Like the Sun," and "Rabbit Hole." Saturday Night, Sunday Morning received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised Bugg's songwriting and return to his earlier sound.
