**Exploring the Black & Gold Album**

Released today, June 6, 2025, Black & Gold is available on vinyl, CD, and digital formats through Journeyman Records and joanneshawtaylor.com. The album showcases Joanne’s evolution, blending her signature guitar riffs with emotive vocals and inspired songwriting. Key tracks include:

“Hell Of A Good Time”: A high-energy opener, available to watch here (note: exact URL not provided; check official channels).
“Look What I’ve Become”: A haunting exploration of addiction and isolation, featuring minor-key blues intensity and a Bond-theme cinematic sweep. Joanne reflects, “It’s about the moment where you either change everything or disappear. The lyrics came from a very honest place.” The official music video is available here (check official channels for the link).

Black & Gold builds on Joanne’s acclaimed discography, including Heavy Soul (2024), Nobody’s Fool, and The Blues Album, which topped Billboard Magazine’s Official Blues Album Chart and was voted the #1 Most Played Blues Album of 2021 by the Independent Blues Broadcasters Association.
