The story of Joan Wasser is one enveloped in both tragedy and hope. As the former girlfriend of the late and great Jeff Buckley, Wasser had a deep connection to the New York music and art scene in which she forged her flavours for Joan As Police Women. The multi-instrumentalist and singer blends soul, classical and indie music together in her sound, elevating it with her potent lyricism.
