On this Joanne Shaw Taylor Interview: How she started gigging at 14, learning to write songs on her own, how music helped heal emotional wounds, losing her mum to breast cancer, dealing with financial low points in her career, her worst gig ever, the naivete of her youth… her main guitars and how she got them… why she doesn't listen to new blues OR guitar music, cooking, reading & the outdoors, why your gigs are never as good or as bad as you think, how she stopped giving a f-ck, Hank, and why it's best if "You do you." LOVELY conversation with a first-class professional who's also a lot of fun
