Jo Quail is an internationally acclaimed composer and virtuoso cellist from London. Equally at home on stage solo, with bands - or in collaboration with choir and orchestra - she combines an eloquent mastery of her instrument with innovative looping techniques, to realise her complex, evocative music for audiences worldwide. Inspired by the visual arts as much as by fellow composers, Jo cites Barbara Hepworth and Georgia O'Keefe as key influences, alongside the diverse music of Debussy, Pärt, Tool and Cardiacs. Her exuberant, celebratory performance style has won her a fanbase in the contemporary classical world as well as among enthusiasts of post-rock, metal and electronica.
