It's wonderful to collaborate with artists who possess the empathy and skill to enhance your own creative vision. Costin Chioreanu has become one such kindred spirit I can entrust with my most precious labours of love πŸ₯°

His artwork on the 'Notan' vinyl and CD sleeves, his animated backdrop for the recent performance for ArcTanGent with CROSSBONES TROMBONES and Tom Atherton, and this evocative image on my new longsleeve shirts, all beautifully encapsulate the many ideas and feelings behind my compositions for 'Ianus' and 'Notan'. I hope you get to know Costin and his many other projects, he's truly brilliant ❀️‍πŸ”₯

My new longsleeve shirts will be available at my concerts from tonight until Saturday (dates and venues on my pinned post). After this short UK run, I'll put any remaining on my Bandcamp merch page.

I look forward to reconnecting with some of you dear friends in Leicester, Glossop, Shipley and Meifod very very soon! πŸŽΆπŸ’žπŸŽΆ

Love, Jo xxx

"I actually think that's where some of the greatest moments exist, like cracks in the pavement. You know that it will never happen again like that. We could do that set again right now for you; it would be completely different"

Thank you to George Miller for interviewing me in OST Magazine after the recent concert at ArcTanGent with CROSSBONES TROMBONES and Tom Atherton.

You can find it on pages 22-23 on the print and digital versions of this month's edition.

Look forward to creating more unique moments from tomorrow with some of you around the UK ❀️‍πŸ”₯
