Jo your songs were amazing last night in Dublin. For me as a ND that was quite overwhelmed going out last night..your music was very calming and also powerful.

We’ll see you in Manchester Jo 😁 be good to catch up again. You should do the white hotel again 😁 although Angela wasn’t keen on the venue πŸ˜‚

It was amazing seeing you in York. A truly haunting performance.

The Cluny!! Will be getting tickets 🀘🏻

Awesome!!! See you at the cluny 😁😁😁

Amazing - you were SO GOOD supporting Wardruna in York, everyone around me was chattering away about how fantastic you were!

We would be booking but unfortunately we're away on our next adventure..

Ooh how exciting. The Cluny is a fab venue, can't wait xx

Fantastic news! Where's the Jam Jar?

Jo Quale was awesome ♥️

Yay see you in the Jam jar❀️🌟🀘

Brilliant to have you back in Manchester Jo. ❀️

See you in Leicester πŸ™πŸ» Jo Quail - The Big Difference, Leicester

Look forward to it !

Ah the Jam Jar’s a lovely venue

See you tomorrow!

Loved you in Birmingham opening for Wardruna.

Looking forward to seeing to you and Wardruna tomorrow in Glasgow! 🎢

Manchester is tempting

Southampton!!

Really looking forward to tomorrow!

Jo Quail Fantastic news πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸŽΆXXX

I'm absolutely thrilled to be playing tonight's concert! I've been looking forward to playing this evening at the Royal Albert Hall ever since I got invited on this tour by Wardruna last year.

This venue means very much to me, as it's in my hometown and I've seen some absolutely phenomenal concerts here over the years. A lesser-known important reason is that I have actually performed here once before when I was a tiny little cellist (before I could even hold a full-sized cello). I was part of a large orchestra and it meant the world to me. I have never, ever forgotten this space, so to be back here now, having grown up with cello being pivotal to my life, and being able to bring that to this hall, feels very, very powerful. This is my town, my city, my home, so to bring my love back here and bare my soul in this space feels very profound.

The tour with Wardruna is going magnificently. These are such beautiful, wonderful people, and it's truly the greatest privilege to be invited by them, to be able to open the concert, to set the environment to the best of my abilities, and to leave the right energies on that stage, on all stages, in every room every night. They could not have made me feel more welcomed, and I am very, very blessed.

Thank you to HC Daalgard for taking this photo xx

I'm still on this gorgeous voyage, travelling today as I prepare to start my UK tour with Wardruna.

For now, I want to very quickly thank God Is An Astronaut for such a wonderful experience, Federico for being a superb TM from start to finish, and extend my love and gratitude to all of you who shared the experience with us in Europe over the last week and a half.

I will share more thoughts and feelings with you in full at the end of the Wardruna tour. Thanks and love to you all πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

It was a pleasure to see you shine again in a double role. Keep excelling as you are an inspiration for a lot of people and foremost one of the most influencing crossover artists of this century.

πŸ–€πŸ€ŒπŸ«– it’s been an honor πŸ™‚

It was great to see you perform in Haarlem. Unfortunately I did not get to say hi.

I saw your performance in Liverpool philharmonic and it was an amazing experience. I’ve never seen cello played that way, or seen any ‘looping’ in action live. Your music was incendiary, beyond time and place and so emotionally stirring! Thankyou for sharing it with us, I can’t wait to see more of your work - especially your symphony. Xxx

Oh you absolutely blew Liverpool philharmonic away tonight! Absolutely phenomenal, just spellbinding performance. 2nd time seeing you live, and just blows me away. Beautiful, just beautiful

I’ll be taking pics for me! Look forward to seeing you in RAH and Beacon Jo Quail. Hope you can still play that little gig in the village hall when have space in your diary 😊

Crossing fingers, toes, and eyes, hoping a US tour is someday a reality... I'll be front row center

Thank you for playing in Birmingham last night. Third time seeing you and just gets better . Sorry we didn't say hello when you walked through the bar on the second floor πŸ₯°

Looking forward to seeing you again in Bristol Jo.

We’re really looking forward to seeing you tomorrow night at Liverpool Philharmonic! 😊 x

Saw you in Birmingham last night, absolutely fantastic!

See you tomorrow!

You were outstanding in Liverpool. I brought 2 friends who had never experienced your music before. They are firm fans now. My 3rd time seeing you & you get more amazing every time. πŸ’š

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow in liverpool xxx

Absolutely loved the show in Birmingham. You smashed it Jo Quail. It was nice to see you back where I discovered your mesmerising music.

Saw you at Liverpool tonight, totally in awe of your talent, brilliant

My wife and I were blown away by your performance at Birmingham Jo. Just utterly enchanting - amazing stuff!

See you in Bristol on Friday!!

So happy to have met you in Haarlem You have a new fan!

Merci à toi Jo pour ton talent et ta gentillesse, bonne continuation, au plaisir βœŒοΈπŸ˜‰

Im coming to take some photos in Birmingham, London and Bristol πŸ™‚ , cya there
