Jadu Heart. Diva Jeffrey and Alex Headford, a duo who met at the British and Irish Modern Music Institute in London and have been based in Bristol since 2019, working out of their own basement studio. They move freely between dream pop, shoegaze, indie rock and folktronica. Lush, warm and structurally restless, never quite settling where you expect. The run goes Wanderflower (2016), Melt Away (2019), Hyper Romance (2020), Derealised (2023) and POST HEAVEN (2025), where 'Littleboy' sits. The band started as a college assignment to depict a cycle audibly, and in their early years they performed and did press entirely in masks, as the mythical characters Dina and Faro, before unmasking around the Hyper Romance release.
