That’s Joanna Connor in her home turf of Chicago, with the firepower she delivers to local crowds on a nightly basis. That video has gone around the world a few times, getting millions of views and being re-posted in Japan, Russia and all over Europe. By her mid-teens she was playing the Worcester and Boston clubs with her own band, then moved to Chicago in 1984. Once in town she learned from the best, sitting in with the likes of James Cotton, Buddy Guy and Junior Wells. After a spell in Dion Payton’s band, she launched her own group which debuted with 1989’s "Believe It".
