ALBUMS

Picture

Safe in sound - the remixes, 2018

Remixes by DJ Taz Rashid. Out 12/21/18
Listen here.

Picture

Language of the light, 2017

 "Her music explores the interconnectedness of humanity, and evokes a spiritual energy of both searching and grounding. Her most recent album, Language of Light, is specifically inspired by the yoga practice."
​- Jillian Billard, Wanderlust

"From a listener’s perspective, It feels like an offering—an invitation to join her in celebration of our connection to the earth and each other. She expresses that light is what binds us together, and it cannot be put out."
​
- Jillian Billard, Wanderlust

Picture

HUM, 2017

"Almost gospel in its purity and delivered with Nashville flair, it captures all the ingredients. Ida Jo’s voice is strong but yet breathy, with a somberness and that sense of searching that’s so central to her music."
​- Rick Tvedt, Local Sounds Magazine

"Her music is a gift, a present to those hoping to find clarity in their own lived experience."
- Wanderlust.com

Picture

guardian of being, 2015

"Ida Jo has been thriving with a violin in her hand, from the day she got it." - Local Sounds Magazine

Picture

The CURRENT, 2014

"What makes [The Current] so compelling, like most all of Ida Jo's music, is the starkly plaintive emotion she brings to the vocals."
- Channel3000.com

"But Ida's music isn't just about her trusty fiddle: She can do something that singer and fiddler extraordinaire Alison Krauss doesn't even attempt. She sings while playing her instrument. And this isn't just a bit of humming or a quick la-la-la." - Isthmus

Picture

FOR BETTER FOR WORSE, 2013

"For Better for Worse is a true solo performance and production effort...The songs grapple with the quest for self-discovery and the struggles with being an artist and its subsequent ups and downs."  - Rick Tvedt, Madison Magazine

Picture

UNCHARTED, 2012

"There's something refreshing about the record, which doesn't dwell on stormy breakups or brushes with fame." - Jessica Steinhoff, Isthmus 

"Ida Jo has established herself as one of the most consistent and prolific artists in Madison."
- Local Sounds Magazine

Picture

singer in the band, 2011

"She's gifted, she's accomplished...For fairly straight-ahead singer-songwriter material, it is an unusual twist. Most musicians, even very brilliant instrumentalists, don't feel that at home outside of 4/4 or 3/4 time."
​- Duluth News-Tribune


"Only a year after her 2010 debut, Providence, singer-violinist Ida Jo returned with her newest album, Singer In The Band, which continues to expand on her innovative violin work and her soulful vocals." - AV Club

"It's likely you've never heard of Ida Jo, but she's been quietly amassing a solid following and resume." - Madison Magazine

Picture

providence, 2010

"Ida Jo's 2010 debut CD, Providence, was notable for its particular use of the violin in a pop context. Typically, pop artists use string sections, often sampled, to make their songs cinematic. Not Ida Jo." - Rich Albertoni, The Isthmus

Providence, her first recording, is very different and refreshingly so. Ida Jo combines soulful, rhythm and blues with a folk sensibility and jazz elements to create something uniquely her own." - Rick Tvedt, Local Sounds Magazine
