New London Date Added for Jo Harman Spring Tour
AGMP and BiGiAM are proud to announce a new London date for Jo Harman at Omeara, London Bridge on Sunday 2nd June, to round off her International Spring touring.
Tickets can be bought via the Jo Harman website – click here.
This show announcement builds on Jo’s already enviable reputation as one of the most credible and respected talents in the business; a talent The Mirror called ‘the best female UK soul blues voice’ who, according to Classic Rock, ‘writes lip-bitingly beautiful songs’.
This comes fresh on the success of Jo’s latest release, ‘Cloudy’ – a bare to the bone cover of the Average White Band ballad – who noted tastemaker and broadcaster Robert Elms calls ‘his favourite music right now’, an enthusiasm shared by other noted media, for example :-
Chris Wells, Editor Echoes
‘Jo Harman’ – style and effortless class.’
Blues And Soul Magazine
‘Our featured track today is ‘Cloudy’ the powerful and heartfelt new cover from the excellent Jo Harman‘
Laurel Canyon Music, Song of the Day
‘I love “Cloudy”! What a voice! What a talent!‘
David ‘Kid’ Jensen (former BBC Radio 1 and TV Presenter)
‘Beautiful and powerful…on this recording, she surely makes this song her own’

‘WOW, its mind blowing. She makes the words come alive and has the gift that means you feel that she’s telling the story just to you.‘
Orphy Robinson, MBE, Noted jazz musician and bandleader, and Delight Radio Group Presenter
‘The best cover version of this song. When Jo sings it, I believe her‘
(song’s composer) Hamish Stuart (AWB, McCartney, Aretha, Chaka etc)
‘This is my favourite song of the moment, …I couldn’t stop playing at home at the weekend……loving it…absolutely gorgeous, a great, great singer….personally I think this is exceptional’……..absolutely fantastic……‘
