It’s no secret that Savage is a local star with two # 1 records under his belt for 2005’s Swing and Moonshine, but it was a breakthrough international placement in hit US comedy 'Knocked Up' that turned our local hero into an overnight star in America.
Swing was placed in a pivotal bar scene in the blockbuster movie that let the rest of the world know what us Kiwi’s have been saying for a long time- Savage is a platinum star, a big man with a big voice and even bigger talent.
Savage Island debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Albums on 2 March 2009. It has been in the Top 40 Albums for five weeks with a highest position of #9. There are three albums by Savage in the Top 40 Albums.
