Both a make-up and a break-up album, which Billboard calls her "most soulful effort to date," Reckless Heart was written by Joanneduring two phases of a relationship: the fall out and getting back together. The album's lead radio single, "The Best Thing" (PRESS HERE to listen/watch), confidently puts a lover on warning for not committing. Reckless Heart is available now for pre-order.

For a taste of what's in store, PRESS HERE to check out Joanne's live performance on BBC 2's Later...with Jools Holland.
Featuring Joanne's smoky rasp that rises from the legend of soul greats, Reckless Heart finds her in glorious form and a mischievous mood, one minute bearing her claws with catty lyrics and the next deliriously in love. Illuminating all the corners of her firecracker personality, Reckless Heart was borne out of a newfound openness and confidence that can only come with life experience. The 11-song collection explores emotions ranging from blaring anger to flirty love, from the rollicking "In The Mood" and the gritty, gospel-tinged "Reckless Heart"to the gorgeous, acoustic guitar-led "Break My Heart Anyway" and the unplugged gem "Jake's Boogie," recorded entirely live.
In several senses, it's an album of firsts for Joanne - the first made in her adopted home town of Detroit, the first produced by her close friend Al Sutton (Greta Van Fleet, Kid Rock), the first largely recorded live (with no guitar pedals, and with some of Detroit's best musicians - among them jazz drummer Ron Otis, bassist James Simonson, and keyboardists Phil Hale and Chris Codish), the first to feature an unplugged solo performance, and the first with her new label home Silvertone/Sony, following in the footsteps of Silvertone artists that she grew up listening to like Buddy Guy, John Mayall and Stone Roses. But it's also an album that pulls the past into the present. The good-time grooves of vintage, British blues-rock are given a modern makeover, while Joanne's cut-to-the-bone vocals take their cue from her soul heroines like Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, and Mavis Staples.
Throughout her career, Joanne has won over fans such as Stevie Wonder, Joe Bonamassa(whose band played on Joanne's 2016's UK Top 20 hit album Wild), Foreigner (whom she opened for at venues like Royal Albert Hall) and Annie Lennox (with whom she performed in front of Buckingham Palace for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee concert in 2012). Discovered at age 16 by Eurythmics co-founder Dave Stewart, she has spent a decade releasing increasingly successful albums, touring the world, headlining festivals, and amassing awards, and 2019 is sure to bring a lot more from Joanne.

Multiplatinum Icelandic quintet OF MONSTERS AND MEN announce their new album FEVER DREAM to be released on July 26, 2019.
Pre-order FEVER DREAM here and check out albums first single “Alligator” here.
In addition, the band announced the album with a series of exclusive limited-edition vinyl available on their online store. Fans can purchase the first edition at: www.ofmonstersandmenofficialmerch.com.
Finally, in celebration of the new music, the band have confirmed the television debut performance of “Alligator”on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (NBC) on May 15th.
Released just last week “Alligator” has already turned heads with NME praising it as having “a bombastic and driving sound” and Line of Best Fit calling it “undeniably catchy.” In addition, “Alligator” song was the #1 greatest gainer at alternative and #1 most added at Triple A radio - receiving strong support from those who have long awaited for the band’s return.
On “Alligator” co-vocalist Nanna Bryndis Hilmarsdóttir has taken center stage on the song not only as the lead vocalist, but also wrote the track as well. On the empowering anthem and what is coming next for the band they noted, "We are so excited about Alligator, the first release from our upcoming album. The song very much speaks to the excitement and energy that we feel about being back. We can’t wait to share more music and see everyone again.”
FEVER DREAM was co-produced by Rich Costey (MUSE, Vampire Weekend, Chvrches) and is the band’s third studio album.
OF MONSTERS AND MEN went from the talk of Iceland to the top of the global conversation on their 2011 debut, My Head Is An Animal. Not only did the record go platinum, but it also produced an international smash in the form of “Little Talks.” The breakthrough single earned a quintuple-platinum certification from the RIAA, made history as “the first song by an Icelandic band to cross 1 billion streams on Spotify,” and landed the band a performance on Saturday Night Live. The group appeared on official soundtracks for franchises such asThe Hunger Games, The Walking Dead, and Beat Bugs, to name a few. In addition to performing at festivals such as Coachella, Lollapalooza, Firefly, and beyond, they supported Florence + the Machine on a high-profile arena tour. In the midst of this rapid rise, 2015’s Beneath The Skin bowed in the Top 3 of the BillboardTop 200 and the band starred in an episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones in the same year.
