Lemons, Limes & Orchids - out now via Play It Again Sam - is an intimate journey through the unique soundscape of Joan As Police Woman (aka Joan Wasser) - blending jazz, ambient, and electronic elements.
A crowning showcase of Joan's artistry in all its metamorphic splendour, the new album sees Joan venture deeper into her jazz influences with further affectations associated with electronic and ambient music.
Speaking on the new album, Joan said: “I was ready to make an album that truly featured my voice. The basics were recorded like they used to be - with me singing live along with the band. My good friend told me this is the sexiest album I’ve ever made. Honestly, I think she’s right.”
Over the course of Joan’s illustrious 3-decade career, she’s made more than considerable strides building her pedigree as a live act. Performing with and alongside luminaries like Lou Reed, Rufus Wainwright, Damon Albarn, John Cale, Laurie Anderson, Sufjan Stevens, Anohni, Beck, Toshi Reagon and most notably the late Jeff Buckley, who she has affectionately referred to as her soulmate.
