(NEWTON, NJ) -- The Newton Theatre presents An Evening with Joanne Shaw Taylor on Thursday, August 14, 2025. Doors are at 7:00pm, showtime is 8:00pm.

British blues-rock powerhouse Joanne Shaw Taylor continues to push boundaries with her upcoming album Black & Gold, set for release on June 13th via Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records. Black & Gold showcases Joanne’s fearless storytelling across a dynamic lineup of singles like “Grayer Shade of Blue,” “Who’s Gonna Love Me Now,” and her stirring cover of Sam Sparro’s “Black & Gold.” 

Her single, “Hell Of A Good Time,” captures her fiery guitar work and infectious rock swagger, while reflecting on the darker side of excess and escapism. The album blends elements of blues-rock, Americana, indie rock, and retro '80s pop, exploring themes of resilience, self-discovery, and emotional healing.

Joanne will hit the road with a series of high-energy performances starting with Keeping The Blues Alive at Sea X in March 2025, followed by an extensive U.S. spring tour. Audiences can look forward to hearing fresh material from Black & Gold alongside her fan-favorite anthems, all delivered with her electrifying stage presence.

Tickets range from $52.50-$80 and are available for purchase online starting Friday, May 9th at 10:00am. The Newton Theatre is located at 234 Spring Street in Newton, New Jersey.

Praised by legends like Stevie Wonder and Annie Lennox and produced by Kevin Shirley, the record cements Joanne’s reputation as one of the most innovative voices in modern blues. Her partnership with Journeyman Records allows her creative freedom, bringing her powerful, personal songs directly to fans without compromise.
