JOAN AS POLICE WOMAN IS ‘NERVOUS’
On April 11th Joan As Police Woman releases a new single from her rapturously received third album The Deep Field (Play It Again Sam).
New single, Nervous concerns what Joan calls “the freedom to admit you’re vulnerable and anxious,” in a new-found relationship, rather than just projecting bravado. Some artists play a part, act stuff out, and like to hide behind imagery. That’s fine, but it’s not for everyone. Some, like Joan, want to communicate direct, to tell the truth, and share the honesty. To honour themselves and their audience. It may be cliché to read about it but wonderful to experience.
Nervous begins with a taut drum intro, Moog bass, surging female back-ups and flaming guitar coda. Joan says she was smitten by Marvin Gaye, Sly and the Family Stone, Bowie, Curtis Mayfield and Stevie Wonder too, influences all apparent on her new single.
