Joan As Police Woman and band for Dolans gig

JOAN Wasser AKA Joan As Police Woman has released three albums since 2020, a 17 track live album, an album of covers and her most recent record, โ€˜The Solution Is Restlessโ€™ was recorded with Tony Allen and Dave Okumu.
Joan adds, โ€œDamon Albarn introduced me to Afrobeat legend, Tony Allen, at the Africa Express event The Circus in London in 2019.
โ€œTony and I played Nina Simoneโ€™s I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free and made a pact to record together in the future.
In November of that year, our pact was realised. My old friend and fierce musician Dave Okumu joined Tony and me in a Parisian studio, where we improvised, untethered by form or tempo.โ€
Joan also wrote and recorded โ€˜Simplicityโ€™ with Damon Albarn for the recent Gorillaz โ€˜Song Machineโ€™ album.
Joan and her trio featuring drummer Parker Kindred (Antony & The Johnsons, Jeff Buckley) and bassist Jacob Silver (Lee Fields) will perform music spanning her career, including songs off the new albums and reworked classics.
