Brooklyn-based, world renowned recording artist, live performer, songwriter, multiinstrumentalist, mentor and producer, Joan As Police Woman, born Joan Wasser, started
her musical career studying classical violin. She began playing with alt-rock bands,
expanding the terrain of the violin.
In 2002, Wasser created Joan As Police Woman to explore song-writing. Her debut album
Real Life was released in 2006 to wild acclaim. Originally self-described by Wasser as
punk rock R&B, her sound has naturally evolved through 10+ acclaimed studio albums,
thousands of live shows internationally and hundreds of collaborations including John
Cale, Lou Reed, Gorillaz, Meshell Ndegeocello, Anohni, David Sylvian, Rufus Wainwright,
and Damon Albarn (the last five also all feature on her own records).
In January 2021 Joan was hired by NYUs Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music as a
mentor. Her most recent album The Solution Is Restless (released November 2021) is a
collaboration with the late great Afrobeat drummer Tony Allen (Fela Kuti) and Dave
Okumu.
Presently writing her new album and a hymn to commemorate the upcoming eclipse, Joan
stays inspired by collaborating with and contributing to as many musical projects she can
fit into the 25 hour day.
