A personal story about love, parting, growing an returning. The extraordinary thing about singer-pianist Digna Janssen and multi-instrumentalist Johan Smeets is that they manage to balance between deep emotion and an energetic live performance. Strings play a significant part on their albums as well as playing live, they create a special blend between singer/songwriter, folk, pop, classical with a touch of roots.

Jodymoon feels like a chamber orchestra and although it’s a quartet, the sound is rich and full. Johan jumps from guitar and dobro to percussion to piano with a striking ease. Violin and cello provide a thick carpet, supporting the compositions and Digna’s powerful voice is dynamic, full of tone and soul. As a listener one has the feeling of being plunged in a warm soothing bath.

Jodymoon have won the public’s choice award of ‘The Grand Price of NL’, played a series of concerts in Canada last year, and have played as supporting act for Joan Armatrading, Damien Jurado, Tom McRae and others. In New York they collaborated several times with producer Bryce Goggin (Antony and the Johnsons, Joan As Police Woman).

Digna Janssen: vocals, piano
Johan Smeets: guitar, dobro, banjo, percussion, vocals
Marie-José Didderen: cello
Wim Spaepen: violin

I Know This
Jodymoon Lyrics

I know a girl and the world is her home
she's got a roadmap tattooed on her arms
she won't get lost oh

I know a girl and the road is her home
she is travelling around to see the seas and the stars
she knows where to go it's told on her arms

Travelling light
with clouds and rain at night

up and down and underground
In plain sunlight

She sings a lot these days when she is on her own
the world is her arena to rediscover herself
but she won't get lost no

She won't get lost no when she's down on the road
Used to taking care of destinations within
while reading the signs tattooed on her skin

Travelling light
with clouds and rain at night
up and down and underground
In plain sunlight
