Critically acclaimed British Blues phenom guitarist Joanne Shaw Taylor is pleased to announce five UK concerts in September 2025. Planet Rock will start a 48-hour ticket pre-sale at 10am GMT on Wednesday June 4th via Planetrock.com.
Tickets go on general sale at 10am on Friday June 6th from Gigantic.com, Planetrocktickets.co.uk, and joanneshawtaylor.com.
The general on-sale coincides with Joanne’s new studio album Black & Gold released by Journeyman Records on Friday June 6th.
The album is available on vinyl, CD and digital HERE.
The tour kicks off at Bath Forum (Wednesday September 24th) and continues at York Barbican (Thursday September 25th), Wolverhampton Wulfren Hall (Saturday September 27th), Eastbourne Devonshire Park Theatre (Sunday September 28th), and London Cadogan Hall (Thursday October 9th).
Don’t miss Joanne Shaw Taylor live with her powerhouse band as she hits the stage with songs from her brand-new album Black & Gold. Known for her blazing guitar work and soulful voice, Joanne fuses blues, rock, soul, and pop into an unforgettable live performance. The evening will also include fan favourites from past albums and nods to blues greats. Widely regarded as one of today’s most electrifying live acts, Joanne Shaw Taylor guarantees an unforgettable night of musical brilliance.
Watch “Hell Of A Good Time,” from Joanne’s latest album Black & Gold available HERE.
Joanne will also perform songs from her rich back catalogue of albums including Heavy Soul, Nobody’s Fool, and The Blues Album which topped Billboard Magazine’s Official Blues Album Chart.
The Blues Album was voted #1 Most Played Blues Album of 2021 by the Independent Blues Broadcaster’s Association. Joanne will also perform select songs from her older album Reckless Heart, Wild, The Dirty Truth, Almost Always Never, Diamonds in the Dirt, and White Sugar.
One of the highlights from Joanne’s new Black & Gold album is “Look What I’ve Become”—a haunting reflection on addiction, isolation, and the moment of choosing whether to fight or let go. The gripping track blends minor-key blues intensity with the cinematic sweep of a Bond theme, anchoring some of Joanne’s most confessional songwriting and driving it home with her incredible signature guitar tone.
“This song’s about hitting that crossroads,” Joanne shares. “It’s about the moment where you either change everything or disappear. The lyrics came from a very honest place—and I wanted the music to match that intensity.” Watch the official music video HERE.
Always one to push boundaries, Joanne's union with Joe Bonamassa's Journeyman Records continues to flourish, ensuring that her music reaches her global fanbase. This relationship, alongside her innate creativity, guarantees a stream of sensational releases that cuts through the industry noise.
Discovered by Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics when she was a mere 16-years-old and subsequently invited to tour the world, Joanne's rise to stardom, propelled by endorsements from music giants like Stevie Wonder and Annie Lennox, remains unmatched.
With a discography boasting chart-toppers like Reckless Heart, The Blues Album, and 2024’s Heavy Soul, Joanne is unstoppable. As she celebrates her highly anticipated new studio album Black & Gold, fans can expect a cocktail of her signature guitar riffs, emotive vocals, and inspired songwriting.
