More About Joan Armatrading and the Concert:

3 time Grammy-nominated JOAN ARMATRADING has come a long way since her birth in the West Indies and her upbringing in Birmingham.
With 19 stunning albums to her credit and a brand new album "This Charming Life" just released, Joan's subtle and sublime music has touched millions of people all over the world.
 
Known as a true craftsman, her distinctive vocals and consummate musicianship - she has arranged as well as played every instrument, with the exception of drums on her album - have led to unanimous, widespread and, perhaps most importantly, consistent critical acclaim. Effortlessly eclectic, her sound has ranged from true soul to sophisticated pop, driven by her passionate guitar.

In musical terms, Joan Armatrading has achieved far more than most performers even dream of - she has played, and still does, with some of the finest musicians around. She has received countless gold, platinum and silver discs, she has been nominated for the Brit Award, she has been the recipient of a highly-coveted Ivor Novello Award, and ranked high in VH1's Top 100 poll for The Most Influential Woman In Rock.
 
More than that, Joan has been honored by the Queen and is one of the few female artists ever to receive an MBE.

Leaving school when she was 16, she undertook various jobs all the while writing songs, until signing to Cube Records in 1971. Her debut album, "Whatever's For Us," produced by the late great Gus Dudgeon and written with her friend Pam Nestor, was released the following year on Cube in the UK and A&M in the States. In 1974 Joan signed to A&M worldwide, and the career that has followed has witnessed a plethora of classic and memorable songs - "Love and Affection," "Down To Zero," "Drop the Pilot," and "Me Myself I." Joan has worked with members of Little Feat, Fairport Convention, XTC, the Police and Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. Musicians such as Darryl Jones (Rolling Stones), Mark Brzezicki (Big Country) Tony Levin (King Crimson), Manu Katche (Sting), Benmont Tench (Tom Petty), Mark Knopfler and stalwart Greg Phillingames have all joined her in the studio while her list of producers is impressive - Glyn Johns, Gus Dudgeon, Steve Lillywhite, and David Tickle to name but a few. The first non-jazz artist to play at London's Ronnie Scott's in the main room, Joan has many distinctions to her credit.  A long time Ambassador and performer for the Prince's Trust, she lends her support to various charities across the world.

Now she releases her finest work to date. THIS CHARMING LIFE is a collection of eleven new compositions that sees Joan return to a more rock/pop format, both commercial yet also contemporary. From the anthemic opener and title track "This Charming Life," to the hard rocking "Heading Back To New York City" and the joyous "Best Dress On," Joan is back with an album that appeals to fans old and new. A consummate performer, Joan Armatrading is indeed the whole package: an excellent song writer, a powerful vocalist and, as a guitarist, she is certainly one of the best female players in the world.
