## Summary

Heartworms, the project of London musician Jojo Orme, has released the dance-driven single ‘Guess I’m Stuck In The Dark’ as the first preview of her second album. The song pairs a groove-based indie sound with her darker style, using fear of the dark to explore insecurity and the way uncertainty can distort thoughts.

Orme says the album is recorded and nearly finished, though she is still developing its visuals. She describes its lyrics as sharing a world of “uncertainty and dark humour”, while saying the songs do not follow one fixed character or musical style. Personal changes, including her marriage ending, have also shaped her outlook and writing since her 2025 debut, ‘Glutton For Punishment’.
