Jopy are a Brighton based  three-piece led by songwriter Jo Parnell whose B52s/Cramps influenced glam punk sound is chocker with incendiary punk riffs and frantically infectious choruses. 
Full of macabre joy, Parnell's songs celebrate her queerness through fantastical camp-horror fictions via Marc Bolan-esque vocals rolled into one blood-curdlingly gleeful package. Tracing these songs' deeply personal origins, Parnell says: “I want to write songs that people can relate to and feel seen by without having to relive the more difficult aspects of their journeys. This is why I chose to convey my experiences in the form of fun, campy horror stories.”

 “Short, sharp punk-pop songs of the wry and witty variety…the midpoint between Elastica and PJ Harvey’s twangier moments” Record Collector
Jopy's debut 6 track EP, Planet Zombie,  will be released on purple 12" vinyl on Goo Records on 20th September. The first singles from that release, Head Hunters Pub & Grub and Graveyard Romance, are available on all the streaming services.
