Joan Wasser returns with her fourth album with her Joan As Policewoman project, "The Classic" following on her from her critically acclaimed album 'The Deep Field" in 2011. The new album showcases her intimate and uplifting brand of soul combined with her unique torch-singing temperament, with a more liberated feel than ever before. Featuring guests artists like comedian & musician Reggie Watts, Joseph Arthur as well as her usual Joan As Police Woman cohorts, Tyler Wood (keyboards), Oren Bloedow (bass and sharing guitar parts with Joan) & Parker Kindred, Jeff Buckley's former drummer.

Trained as a classical violinist, Joan graduated to playing in Antony Hegarty's Johnsons and Rufus Wainwright's band, whose combined piano balladry inspired her own music, while infusing it with her individual stripped-down-soul and torch-song approach. This new album features influences from soul, street corner doo-wop, classic fifties & sixties pop while creating its own unique sound.
