NEW SIGNING: Jo Harman



We are pleased to announce that we have signed Jo Harman to Full Thought Publishing. Since setting out Jo Harman has been generating buzz in the blues and soul community with her exceptional song-writing and dynamic vocal presence. Jo’s music is a unique and contemporary take on the classic sounds of gospel, blues and soul; showcasing her powerful voice in in a variety of emotionally charged songs.

After initially releasing Dirt On My Tongue independently,  Jo will be re-releasing the album on 30th October via The Big Chill Label and Proper Distribution - “She perfectly reflects the central Big Chill ethos which has always been about doing your own thing” explains Eugenie Arrowsmith Big Chill Label manager. The album is also being released on major label, V2 (Mumford and Sons, Laura Marling) in Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.

Well known to the festival circuit, Jo impresses with her roots firmly set in blues music oozing with a modern approach. Few artists have travelled so far, and so quickly, on the back of a self-released album. This year alone Jo has been booked and headlined over 40 festivals including Cheltenham Jazz, Edinburgh Jazz, Blues Fest (where she will formally launch ‘Dirt on my Tongue’) and at the Royal Albert Hall. She also recently performed as one of only 12 mainstage at Parkpop in The Netherlands, a huge event with 300,000 attendees, as well as being invited to appear on several prime, mainstream ,TV and other media programmes in the region.
