Joanna Connor Best of Me LP

Looking more like a woman who could be your next door neighbor rather than a scorching blues rock guitar goddess, Joanna Connor is an atypical and unassuming guitar heroine who absolutely shreds or tenderly caresses notes out of her Gibson Les Paul. Having her performances passed along on social media by heavy hitters Slash, Bootsy Collins, Vernon Reed and others only lends credence to her immense and intriguing talents.

Best of Me is Connor's self-curated showcase of musical strengths. It is long established that she is a brilliant and original guitar stylist, and this set amply highlights her writing, singing, arranging, and production skills, all of which go into making one of the artist's most diverse, emotionally resonant albums.
