Hailed as “one of the 21st century’s best musicians” by The Economist, Joan Wasser aka Joan as Police Woman, has established herself as both a leading voice of her generation’s songwriters and an elite performer whose unique sound and original vision heightens the art of her collaborators. A major contributor to key work for an eclectic cohort of artists including Antony and the Johnsons (now ANOHNI), Rufus Wainwright, Damon Albarn, and longtime Fela Kuti drummer Tony Allen, Joan’s insatiable creative drive has spurred 12 razor-sharp solo albums over the past 18 years. On her latest, 2024’s Lemons, Limes and Orchids, Joan is working at the height of her powers, producing music that “turns doubt and anxiety into subtly burnished, soulful nocturnes” (Mojo). For her headlining debut set at Lincoln Center’s American Songbook, Joan and her band comprised of Will Graefe on guitar and Jeremy Gustin on drums will offer songs from Lemons, Limes and Orchids, select jewels from her formidable catalog, and a few surprises.
