JOANNE SHAW TAYLOR, the English blues-rock superstar, is renowned worldwide for her guitar skills and mesmerizing vocals.
Her exceptional talents imbue an expressive & convincing collection of songs with boldness, vulnerability, and, above all, love.
“Hold Of My Heart” is the latest single from the musician, and is out now. It features Sav Madigan, the folk-rock violinist from The Accidentals. The single is available on all major streaming platforms.
“Hold Of My Heart” delves into the emotional rollercoaster of confessing deep feelings to a close friend, and thereby explores the grit & vulnerability involved in taking such a momentous leap of faith.

The golden arcs of violin and the sassy-stringed tweedles of guitar provide cheery expectations on this song, as it comes across as softly country. Though the piece is also imbued with a sense of bluesy janglesome huskiness and peppery rhythmics. Positive and impactful!
“This song is about telling a good friend that you actually like them as more than a friend,” Joanne says. Adding, “and realizing, if only for your own sake and the sake of honesty in a friendship to finally tell them.”
Embracing the Nashville music scene, Joanne is blending the vibes she hears with her British blues-rock style.
Joanne, in collaboration with Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records, intends to defy traditional release methods by consistently delivering high-quality singles to her fans following the success of her album ‘Heavy Soul,’ which we praised for its “unrestrained expressiveness… and a joyful, southern blues-inspired emotion.”
