It's Jo and Danny is the brainchild of Jo Bartlett and Danny Hagan. In 2000 they released their debut album 'Lank Haired Girl to Bearded Boy' on their own Double Snazzy label. Rave reviews and daytime UK national radio play on Radio 1 led to a worldwide recording contract with RCA. Live UK performances included appearances at Glastonbury, Reading and T in the Park with international shows at Crossing Borders in Amsterdam with Emmylou Harris and Les Inrockuptibles festival in Paris with Coldplay.

Albums and the Green Man Festival

In 2003 they released 'But We Have The Music' in the UK, Spain, Germany and Japan, and received Album of the Week in the Times. In the same year, they founded the Green Man Festival in the Brecon Beacons, Wales. This pioneered what Bob Stanley called "the new wave of folk" The Times [The Times 22nd August 2003]

'The Quickening' was recorded with Scottish/Irish/Californian folk outfit Daimh and released in 2005. Once again, it was critically well-received and awarded 4 stars by Peter Paphides in The Times.

They currently record as The Yellow Moon Band.
