Heartworms + She’s In Parties

Cabaret Voltaire, Edinburgh 36 Blair Street, Edinburgh

South London’s Heartworms, the solo project from Jojo Orme, dips into dark synth pop and gothic aesthetic to create her post-punk electronic sound. Her lyrics are of a literary quality, packaged in siren-sweet vocals over dog barks, fierce guitar riffs, and out-of-kilter grooves.

£16.50
