Britain's What's On Event Guide
Joanna Cooke
Motown legend Martha Reeves summed it up perfectly, describing Joanna Cooke as “the baby girl singing the blues”.
Joanna, much like her South West blonde counterpart Joss Stone, demonstrates that true soul and emotional connection is not simply constrained by colour or creed. Moreover, her self-penned songs leave a lasting impression on audiences, by dint of their raw honesty and song craft.
Drive and talent combined with her contemporary sound blending Soul, Jazz & Blues now sees Joanna performing Festivals and notable venues around the UK and supporting big name artists such as Tom Jones, Rag N Bone Man, Martha Reeves, Paloma Faith & Mamas Gun.
Her recent ‘Kaleidoscope,’ EP produced by acclaimed musician Mark Edwards delivered tracks earning spots in the UK Soul Music
Charts’ Top 30. A voice that transcends genres even spilling into the international dance music scene with a 2023 collaboration getting
‘hottest track of the week’ on BBC Radio 1’s dance anthems plus more BBC Radio 1 airplay in 2024 with a second release which topped the UK house music Spotify playlist among several other large editorial playlists including ‘New music Friday’. After recently supporting Matt Johnson (Jamiroquai) at the Jazz Cafe in London Joanna is an independent artist on the up! So grab your tickets to catch her live whilst you can.
Here are some samples from the duo youtu.be/cabC83Snfq4
“ ..a voice that drips with soul. Joanna takes a song and layers it over you like warm honey until it floats you away”
Dart Music Festival
That’s how you do a session. Unreal. The incomparable Joanna Cooke”
