Jo Alice was born in Faro, Portugal to a French father and an Anglo-Irish mother. She spent her formative years between the south of Portugal and the west coast of Ireland where her musical talents began to flourish. A chance encounter in 2017 prompted her to move to Los Angeles and begin her career as a musician. Fluent in French, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and English, Jo Alice's influences are evident in her poetic lyrics and thoughtful melodies. For the past year she has been recording her debut LP in Austin with Britt Daniel (Spoon), Mike McCarthy (Spoon, A Giant Dog), and Stephen Patterson (Hamilton Leithauser, White Rabbits). This will be her official SXSW debut.
