Originally discovered by Eurythmics' Dave Stewart as a 16 year old guitar prodigy, Joanne now presents her third studio album 'Almost Always Never'.

The new album's produced by legendary record producer Mike McCarthy (Spoon, ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead, Patty Griffin) in Austin. "Mike comes from a different musical background from me," says Joanne. "He pushed me out of my comfort zone, and allowed me to explore new territories whilst remaining true to who I am?."

For two years consecutively, 2010 and 2011, Joanne was voted "Best British Female Vocalist of the Year" at the British Blues Awards. Joanne is fast becoming a major force on the international blues rock music circuit. Hailed by Classic Rock magazine, Joanne also received a Best New Artist Debut nomination at the British Blues Awards for her debut album 'White Sugar'.

The album features David Garza (keyboards), Billy White (bass, guitar) and J.J. Johnson (drums). Garza has worked with Juliana Hatfield, Blues Traveler and Fiona Apple. Billy White has played with the Heartless Bastards and Craig Finn. J.J. Johnson has played drums for John Mayer.
