Snap Scene: Joan As Policewoman, Palais Theatre, 2nd June 2022

June 14, 2022 Mary Boukouvalas

In 2020 as most of the world pressed ‘pause’, Joan was making and releasing new music. She wrote and recorded with Damon Albarn for the Gorillaz ‘Song Machine’ album, released her second album of covers and her first live album. This unique and supremely gifted musician also recently released a brand new studio album ‘The Solution Is Restless’, written and recorded with Dave Okumu of The Invisible and legendary drummer Tony Allen shortly before he sadly passed away.

Joan will be joined by three phenomenal musicians for her Australian dates, bringing two sets of music to vivid life from across her stunning career, including songs off the new albums and reworked classics from her remarkable and extensive catalogue aka ‘Joanathology’.
