Heartworms

Heartworms is the compelling moniker of Jojo Orme, a London-based artist whose unique blend of alternative rock and gothic rock has carved out a distinct space within the UK’s contemporary music scene. With shadowy textures and an arresting stage presence, Heartworms’ artistry is defined by a brooding, immersive sound that resonates deeply with fans of esoteric and dark-edged genres.

In recent months, Heartworms has brought her atmospheric performances to some of the most celebrated live music venues across the UK and Ireland. She has appeared on the bill as support for Sleaford Mods, accompanying them on “The Demise of Planet X” tour with concerts at venues such as O2 Academy Brixton in London, 3Olympia in Dublin, and the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow. Her live credentials are further bolstered by a headlining show at London’s Scala in December 2025, affirming her rising stature within the alternative circuit. Heartworms was also a standout support act at Brighton Psych Fest, sharing the stage with headliners LSD AND THE SEARCH FOR GOD.

The momentum continues as Heartworms is set to join Bloc Party and Interpol as a support act on their co-headline tour with shows at major venues including London Olympia and OVO Hydro in Glasgow in December 2026. For aficionados of alternative and gothic rock, following Heartworms is essential—keep an eye on her channels for the latest tour dates and unmissable upcoming shows.
