Jo Harrop & Jamie McCredie Together Again After a three-year hiatus from their journey as an intimate duo, Jo Harrop and Jamie McCredie return to the stage for a special evening. 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. The Collaboration Weathering The Storm was met with rapturous reviews on release. The Guardian awarded the album four stars, calling it a gem simple, modest and perfect, while Iggy Pop described it as unimaginably good on his BBC Radio 6 Music show. Jo Whiley has repeatedly championed Harrops work on BBC Radio 2, describing her voice as sublime. At the heart of this partnership is a shared commitment to understatement, space and emotional truth. Voice and guitar are given room to breathe, allowing the songs to unfold with clarity and intimacy qualities that have come to define their work together. This gig will be all about sharing a moment, a connection and a passion for their craft and the music they love. The Wheatsheaf Pub, May 19th 8pm, doors at 7:30pm. Tickets are 15 (plus booking fee) Jo Harrop 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.

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. All About Jazz noted her ability to convey a wide range of moods effortlessly and naturally. While Bebop spoken here commenting on an earlier gig at the Greenote noted Harrops vocals ranged from raw and bluesy to velvety smooth, her phrasing imbued with both classic soul and modern nuance.

Step back in time to the romance of the Jazz Age at London’s award-winning 1920s-themed party, with live jazz, cabaret and cocktails in a secret venue filled with candles, where everyone dresses the part. Shrug off the winter blues and embrace the joys of spring with a night of revelry at our south London speakeasy. Leading the charge will be Hostess With the Mostest, Amber Topaz, a fireball of song, sass and seduction, introducing joyous burlesque from Bonnie Fox and red-hot ragtime rhythms from the Shirt Tail Stompers. When the band aren’t playing, DJs the Bee's Knees will be spinning vintage vinyl into the night. Elsewhere there will be a pop-up vintage jewellery store and our tarot reader Lucius, plus a complimentary dance lesson in the foxtrot, the default social dance of the 1920s, from George and Sarah.
