Joanne Shaw Taylor got into the blues as a teenager listening to the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert Collins and Jimi Hendrix. Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics fell in love with Taylor's music in 2002 and immediately invited her to join his supergroup D.U.P. for a European tour. The debut album, White Sugar, was released in 2009 and the following year Taylor released Diamonds in the Dirt. Both albums placed in the top ten of the US Billboard Top Blues Albums chart and since then the British guitarist's career has not stopped with a succession of concerts and albums. The waiting is now coming to an end and Taylor announces the release of her new album Reckless Heart.
