Joanna Connor Best Of Me (CD)

(Gulf Coast Records) 9 tracks, digisleeve.

Connor went into the studio in December to record the new album "Best Of Me" with her "Wrecking Crew 22" band, which includes the following members: Joanna Connor (guitar and vocals), Shaun Gotti Calloway (bass), Dan Souvigny (guitar and keys), Curtis Moore Jr. (keys) and Jason J. Roc Edwards (drums and vocals) with special guest Joe Bonamassa, Mike Zito, Grooveline Horns, Josh Smith, Jason Ricci, David Abruzzese and many others.

Connor is an atypical and understated guitar heroine, absolutely shredding or caressing tender notes out of a Gibson Les Paul. Connoisseurs rave about a musician who has played behind Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, Otis Rush and Luther Allison and shared the stage with Jimmy Page, Robben Ford, Robert Cray, the Doobie Brothers, Etta James and numerous other legends. The fact that her performances have been shared on social media by Slash, Bootsy Collins, Vernon Reed and others underscores her immense and fascinating talent.
