About this concert
Joanna Connor is a powerhouse blues guitarist and vocalist whose fiery slide guitar and soulful voice have earned her a global following. Raised in Worcester, MA, she was inspired early by artists like Louis Armstrong and Buddy Guy. At 17, she began performing professionally, and by 1984, she had moved to Chicago to immerse herself in the blues scene, calling it her "university." There, she played alongside legends like Junior Wells, Koko Taylor, and Buddy Guy. Her 1990 debut Believe It launched a career that includes over a dozen albums, international tours, and viral performances that reignited her fanbase. In 2021, she topped the Billboard Blues Chart with 4801 South Indiana, produced by Joe Bonamassa. Her latest project with her band, The Wrecking Crew 23', is a bold, all-original record released through Gulf Coast Records. "Music chose me," says Joanna "and the blues world is better for it."

Joanna Connor Biography
Biography by Richard Skelly
What sets Joanna Connor apart from the rest of the pack of guitar-playing female blues singers is her skill on the instrument. Even though Connor has become an accomplished singer over time, her first love was guitar playing, and it shows in her live shows and on her recordings.
Brooklyn-born, Massachusetts-raised Joanna Connor was drawn to the Chicago blues scene like a bee to a half-full soda can. Connor, a fiery guitarist raised in the 1970s — when rock & roll was all over the mass media — just wanted to play blues. She was born August 31, 1962, in Brooklyn, N.Y., and raised by her mother in Worcester, MA. She benefitted from her mother's huge collection of blues and jazz
Para terminar decir que su estilo es totalmente Norteamericano, trayendonos a la memoria aquellas hermanas Wilson con un rock descarado y guitarras rasgadas de espiritu aventurero.
Aquello que los hombres buscan en una gran mujer
Bueeeeeno...
