Inspired by realising how many of her female friends were struggling with the same issues without ever speaking about them, THE ELEPHANT IN THE WOMB is a collection of songs and a unique ‘live gig experience’, transforming separation and silence into unity and song.
The video for BODY BRAVE features statements made by women in answer to Joanie’s question ‘what do you not talk about?’, written on bunting made from Joanie’s childhood bedsheets. The bunting is a central part of the ‘live experience’, draping around the audience as they sing, cry and laugh together.
SINGLE OUT FEB 21st, ALBUM OUT MARCH 7th, TOURING FROM MARCH 15th
It’s a unique and powerful experience which is a mix of gig, singalong and gentle reflective activities. All genders are welcome and participation entirely optional. Here is what audiences have said:
You need to take this show far and wide. Bring it to women anywhere!
More women need to experience is, thank you!
Loving and thoughtful, gentle and modern
This is SO beautiful and needed
THANK YOU! - You're doing something amazing!!
To make a lasting impact, the show is followed by a discussion, and ways to continue experiencing support for those who want it.
Joanie plays Newcastle on Sat March 15th.
