Biography
Jo Day is a Rock artiste based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Her sound could be called "Heavy Melodic Modern Rock". Her influences vary from Gospel to Heavy Metal. Often compared to Garbage & Guano Apes, her music is generally "heavier" than both.
In early 2002, Jo - working with co-writer / producer Jon Buckley (producer of the original Saron Gas, now Seether) - released her first album: "icon", which yielded 4 radio hits. She formed JO DAY, the B.A.N.D. (Bad-Ass Nocturnal Dudes) and began to tour and perform extensively.
In 2003 Jo released her acclaimed second album, "No Warning", which gave another 3 radio hits. Later the same year Jo left her label (Legend Music) and went 'indie' with the launch of her third album: "The Truth" - which outsold 95% of the artistes at Woodstock 5 and yielded 3 radio hits.
Jo disbanded the B.A.N.D. at the end of '04 and took a break from live performances to work with Jon Buckley on her fourth album, "Princess", released through Intervention Arts on 26 April '06, which delivered 4 radio hits.
