The album features Joanne’s personalised covers of 11 rare blues classics immortalised by Albert King, Peter Green, Little Richard, Magic Sam, Aretha Franklin, Little Milton, and many more.

“I’d known from the beginning of my recording career that one day I wanted to record an album of blues covers, I just wasn’t sure when the right time to do that would be,” says Joanne. “I’ve always found it far easier to write my own material than come up with creative ways to make other artists’ material my own.”

When the pandemic put the brakes on from musicians from touring during 2020 and 2021, Joanne thought it was the right time to head into the studio to record The Blues Album.

“We wanted to make a tough vocal centric straight blues record that showcased Joanne’s amazing talent but in a slightly different light,” explains Bonamassa. “Josh and I tested Joanne’s limits and pushed boundaries.”

On June 10, 2022, Joanne released the live album and concert film Blues From The Heart Live. Filmed and recorded at The Franklin Theatre in Franklin, Tennessee, the special concert film, and album includes sixteen tracks and features incredible guest performances from Shepherd, Mike Farris, and Joe Bonamassa. The live album features a special guest performance from Kenny Wayne Shepherd. The album topped Billboard Magazine’s Official Blues Chart.
