HEARTWORMS

Heartworms, the South London-based post-punk project led by Jojo Orme.

Heartworms' debut EP, "A Comforting Notion", received critical acclaim from The Sunday Times, Dazed, The FADER, The Quietus, Loud And Quiet, The Line Of Best Fit, and So Young Magazine. The EP's singles were added to the BBC Radio 6 Music playlist and received spot plays from Radio X’s John Kennedy and BBC Radio 1’s Jack Saunders and Gemma Bradley.

Backed by a full live band, Heartworms’ performances are a masterclass in poise and power. Jojo describes the theatrical elements of her shows, punctuated by her intense stare, as a rebellion against preconceived notions of "smallness" and fragility in female musicians. On stage, she projects an image of strength and total control, with uniformity playing a significant role in her art. Inspired by the metronomic music and meticulous fashion of bands like Interpol and Kraftwerk, and the dark humour of PJ Harvey, Jojo's music is a life-affirming exercise that expels her passions, including military history and the poetry of Pound, Thomas, and Keats.

Hitting the ground running in 2025, Heartworms released her highly anticipated album ‘Glutton For Punishment,’ further cementing her place as one of the UK’s most exciting up and coming talents. She also delivered a dazzling performance on Later with Jools Holland, and has an exciting summer of festivals ahead, having performed at Glastonbury’s Strummerville stage, followed by further dates at Reading and Leeds Festival. 

Already boasting an impressive array of accomplishments this year, 2025 is set to be a defining year for Heartworms.
