"…the duo get everything right, and that's quite rare" – The Guardian

After a three-year hiatus from their journey as an intimate duo, Jo Harrop and Jamie McCredie return to the studio and the stage. This performance marks the next chapter in a collaboration that has earned widespread critical and broadcast acclaim. Alongside songs from their much-loved 2020 album "Weathering The Storm", the duo will perform stripped-back interpretations from across their wider catalogues, as well as new material currently being written and recorded for their forthcoming album "Lighthouses", planned for release in 2027.

Jo Harrop is an award-winning singer, songwriter and recording artist whose work effortlessly blurs the lines between jazz, blues and soul, with subtle influences of Americana, folk and Latin music. She first came to wider attention when Iggy Pop played her music on BBC Radio 6 Music, calling her "a very fine jazz singer," following the release of Weathering The Storm.
Her discography includes Weathering The Storm, The Heart Wants (with Hannah V, featuring Christian McBride), When Winter Turns To Spring (with Paul Edis), and The Path Of A Tear, recorded at The Village Studios in Los Angeles and produced by Grammy-winning producer Larry Klein. Frequently praised for her warm, smoky tone and emotional honesty, Harrop has been nominated twice for Vocalist of the Year.

Jamie McCredie is one of the UK's finest solo guitarists and busiest session musicians. He has toured and recorded extensively around the world, working with a diverse range of artists including James Morrison, Roísin Murphy, Emeli Sandé, Will Young, Joss Stone, Beverly Knight, Kid Creole, Tokio Myers, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Robbie Williams, K.T. Tunstall, Steps, and on numerous film, television and radio sessions.

After winning BBC Radio Guitarist of the Year at the age of 19, McCredie established himself as a distinctive voice on the instrument, blending fiery blues-inflected jazz with deep classical knowledge and exceptional technical facility. He has appeared on some of the world's largest stages — including Glastonbury, Coachella, Montreux and the North Sea Jazz Festival — as well as in intimate venues such as Ronnie Scott's and Cadogan Hall.
