Joanne Shaw Taylor
British Blues rock guitar prodigy Joanne Shaw Taylor has nothing to prove, but plenty to say.
Born in the Black Country and discovered aged 16 by Eurythmics’ co-founder Dave Stewart, Joanne has spent a decade releasing increasingly successful albums and touring the world. Along the way, she has won over fans from Joe Bonamassa to Stevie Wonder to Annie Lennox.
Now based in Detroit, she has topped Billboard Magazine’s Official Blues Album Chart with music that pulls the past in to the present.
The good-time grooves of vintage, British blues-rock are given a modern makeover, while Joanne’s powerful, yet intimate vocals take their cue from the gritty soul greats (Aretha, Tina, Mavis Staples) she grew up on.
