Topic: Joanne Shaw Taylor to play for the Queen!!

Mods, this is worthy of its own thread (if not do whatever with it). Such an honour. Joanne has being asked by Annie Lennox to perform with her at the Jubilee celebration at Buckingham Palace. My understanding is, Annie is doing one of her originals with blues feel to it, Joanne gets a solo too. There will be upwards 500,000 people lining Pall Mall to watch this. Incredible. I believe it is being broadcast in the use as well as all over the world.

I would have posted it up if you hadn't, because this certainly is an amazing honor for 'our' JST! big_smile

Re: Joanne Shaw Taylor to play for the Queen!!

That is so cool - alittle different than the little roadhouse I saw her in Florida last year.

Love story like this when someone with obvious talent gets some recognition.

No mention of JST in this Guardian article, http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/feb/0 … ert-lineup  - but then, she's not a household name is she ... yet!

They only list the lead artists and not the individual band member names, which is the norm.

Re: Joanne Shaw Taylor to play for the Queen!!

She's nominated for the British Blues Awards this year as well...I would have voted for her, but I know Chantel McGregor from when we used to play at the same jam nights, so she gets my vote every time.

I'd like to see the day when Joanne (Chantel, Dani et all) get equal nomination with the guys in the Guitar category. The time's I've seen Joanne especially, she puts everything and more into her playing and I bet there's not many of the guys she couldn't go toe-to-toe with and at least match.

Jo,  like many have multiple threads no harm no foul. JST is part of the family around here. Congrats. What an honor.

Nice solo from Joanne to show the crowd some class playing. Didn't she look gorgeous in those angel wings too. smile

Re: Joanne Shaw Taylor to play for the Queen!!

Just managed to catch JST smile (was hopping backwards and forwards to Springwatch)

Nice to see that one of the bassists being used is Lee Pomeroy. I saw him earlier this year with Steve Hackett and a few years back with Rick Wakeman.

By far the highlight of a load of middle-of-the-road blah, the worst of which for me was the waxen figurine of Grace Jones, who really looked like some kind of zombie. yikes

Hope Joanne at least gets to keep the wings. wink

Better say nothing ... ?!?
Don't need that kind of entertainment.
Angel wings?!? What for?
