Stepping into Joanne Shaw Taylor’s world is Uke being lost in a medieval forest, a surreal place where feral rock guitar solos are sweetened by soul ful bluesy vocals, writes Tony Dewhurst. But a Brummie blues sing
er? Yes, really, ShawTaylor has enough soul to compete with the best the Mississippi Delta has to offer. Joanne left school at 16
and ran straight into her big break, as a twist of fate direct ed her demo into the hands of Eurythmics founder Dave Stewart after a charity gig. She said: “Dave mentored
me to be a songwriter and guitarist and I have so much to thank him for. “He said to me, ‘Joanne, you
can have the greatest guitar solo in the world, but if it’s not in a good song, nobody’s going
to hear it’ and that’s so true.” A year before she had the
guts and determination to play The Marquee and Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club, while still at school, and began to overcome insecurity about her voice. “That was a daunting expe
rience, but you are sort of fear less at that age aren’t you and I
just went to London and did it. “I never really wrote songs
until I was 21, and I certainly never set out to be a singer. “Guitars were always lying
around the house when 1 was a kid, and I would rifle through my dad’s record collection for sunken treasure, and fall ing for albums by Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert Collins and Jimi Hendrix." Five years ago, blues label
Ruf Records won the rush for Joanne’s signature, and soon she was working with veter
an producer Jim Gaines, (Car los Santana) on the songs that became debut album White Sugar. “We recorded it in this lit
tle backwater town in Ten nessee,” she recalls, “and ifwe needed a break, we’d walk to the shop and drink root beer. “It was like, ‘Here I am play
ing with this legendary guy, who is now a friend of the fam ily. I call him Uncle Jim.” Joanne will perform tracks
from her new albumThe Dirty Truth, as well as songs from her previous offerings White Sugar, Diamonds in the Dirt and Almost Always Never. “I don’t think I’m a tradi-
' ionalist, but I wouldn’t say that I’m pushing boundaries like Jack White. “I’m a mixture: classic
rock-Free, Paul Kossoff, Gary Moore, Clapton and all kinds
of sixties stuff. I’m a huge Prince fan too.” Earlier this year, Joanne
joined forces with Joe Bona- massa and blues guitarist Rob in Trower. ‘‘The business has always
been male dominated, but I do see that changing a little bit, she said. “There’s certainly more
females playing guitar than when I started. “One girl can open the
door, but to do so, she’s going to be have to be like Hendrix - the best of her generation. “1 don’t know who that will
be - but I think we’re getting close.” Joanne ShawTaylor will be
at the Clitheroe GrandTheatre on October 4th. Tickets cost £20 and can be booked at the box office by ringing 01200 421599.
