What it results in is a record that shows not just genuine vision and ambition, but pushes beyond to something bigger.

Spotify Apple Music

Label: Daydream Library Released: 4th November 2022

Drawing influence from ideas as diverse as gothic folk and grunge rock, Big Joanie have always been a band a little more special than most.

New album ‘Back Home’ plays with the ideas of belonging in a world which both draws us closer together and further apart at every turn.

What it results in is a record that shows not just genuine vision and ambition, but pushes beyond to something bigger. ■ Dan Harrison
