Heartworms details plans for ‘Glutton For Punishment (The Poetry Edition)’
The deluxe version of her debut album will feature a new spoken word piece, as well as reimagined tracks and remixes.

Having dropped her standout debut album back in February, Heartworms has now announced that she’ll be releasing a deluxe version of the record - entitled ‘Glutton For Punishment (The Poetry Edition)’ - on 19th September via cult South London label Speedy Wunderground.
The 14-track project is set to feature a new spoken word piece, ‘Beat Poem’ (which usually features in Heartworms’ arresting live shows), as well as a Dan Carey remix of ‘Smugglers Adventure’ and reimagined versions of three other cuts (‘Extraordinary Wings’, ‘Celebrate’, and ‘Just To Ask A Dance’).
“Long before we went into the studio to record this album, I handmade Dan Carey a poetry book containing the lyrics to the songs,” the auteur - aka Jojo Orme - has shared. “These stripped back versions on the ‘Poetry Edition’ are an homage to those early stages of creation. ‘Beat Poem’ was something that was born from and became potent in my live performances on the album tour. Bringing the idea back into Dan’s studio, I knew he would help me transform it into more than words being read over a beat. It doesn’t just ask you to listen now - it grabs you by the collar and screams.”
To mark the announcement, Heartworms has also dropped a new video for album track ‘Celebrate’ - on which she collaborated with choreographer Liv Lockwood (Gucci, The 1975, Wet Leg, Aurora) - and confirmed plans for a pair of Winter headline shows in Manchester and London.
