Discovered by Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics when she was a mere 16 years old and subsequently invited to tour the world, Taylor's meteoric rise has made her one of the most sought-after guitarists in the industry. With praise from renowned artists such as Jimmy Cliff, Stevie Wonder, and Annie Lennox, her credibility in the blues-rock world remains unparalleled. “Taylor has navigated the journey from rough diamond to global star,” quoted ERB Magazine. “In a male-dominated guitar world, she truly holds her own.”
Having graced us with albums that consistently top the charts, such as her 2019 release 'Reckless Heart', 2021’s ‘The Blues Album, and 'Nobody's Fool' in 2022, Joanne shows no signs of slowing down. She's currently working on her next studio album, promising a mix of evocative guitar riffs, soulful vocals, and ingenious songwriting. Following the release of her anticipated new single, this fall’s 33-date tour promises to be an unmissable journey through both her classic hits and new material. Kicking off at The Rialto Theatre in Tucson, AZ and culminating at the historic Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta, GA, it's set to be a musical spectacle that underscores why she remains one of the most exciting blues-rock guitarists of the last decade.
