Having cut her teeth on London’s club scene in the early 90s, Jo’s passion for discovering music was further fuelled when working at legendary record store come label Flying Records. It wasn’t long before Jo Mills’ growing reputation saw her playing on the global stage, becoming a regular on the Ibiza club circuit, the island she now calls home.
In the early noughties, Jo became a resident at prominent clubs and parties including Ministry of Sound, Pacha, Space and Amnesia, and the legendary Circoloco at DC10 alongside fellow female DJ Tania Vulcano, cementing her place as one of the island’s most seminal DJs. Simultaneously, Jo’s talent for commanding the crowd saw her touring internationally from Berlin and Barcelona to Sydney and Seoul.
As accomplished in the studio as she is in the booth, Jo has released tracks on respected labels such as Phonetic Recordings, Back To Basics, Pacha Recordings and Bullet Dodge with a sound rooted in warm and rich underground house. Throughout her career, Jo has collaborated with artists including Matti Schwartz, Steve Mac and Steve Butler. Her latest release in collaboration with electronic duo PaperMacheTiger was well received by the clubland elite such as Steve Lawler, Roger Sanchez and Hector Couto.
In 2021 Jo launched Escucha, one of Ibiza’s most popular boutique parties. Running weekly throughout the winter months, the residency draws a sell-out crowd of island residents. After a family-focused hiatus from the scene, Jo returned to the booth with a string of dates in 2022, including residencies at Pikes, Las Dalias, and Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay, plus further appearances at Café del Mar, O Beach and Amnesia. With a career spanning 32 years, Jo is acknowledged as one of the island’s most prolific artists.
