Having grown up in the late 70's and 80's The Pretenders music had a great affect on Jo, they provided the soundtrack for that era, and as songwriter herself Jo has great admiration for Chrissy Hynde and her brilliant songs. Since moving to London 10 years ago Jo has continued performing her own songs playing at venues including The Theatre Clwyd, Wales, The Pavilion Theatre in Brighton, The Mean Fiddler, and at The Theatre Royal in Stratford (London), where she sang for HRH Prince Edward in 2002. Jo began rehearsing with 'The Pretenderers' and has embraced learning and playing those classic songs, working hard to do them justice and putting her heart and soul into respectfully recreating the magic that is The Preten
ders.
