Joanne Shaw Taylor Teams Up With Sav Madigan For “Hold Of My Heart”, A Track About Confessing Feelings For A Close Friend

Blues-Rock guitarist and singer/songwriter Joanne Shaw Taylor has new single, Hold Of My Heart“. The Americana-infused track features violinist Sav Madigan, “Hold Of My Heart” marks the first release from a slate of material she is set to unveil over the next year.

Following the release of her album Heavy Soul, in partnership with Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records, Shaw Taylor plans to “bypass traditional release strategies” by delivering a steady stream of singles.

In “Hold Of My Heart,” she explores “the vulnerable and exhilarating experience of confessing feelings to a close friend.”

Joanne Shaw Taylor says:

This song is about telling a good friend that you actually like them as more than a friend, and realizing, if only for your own sake and the sake of honesty in a friendship to finally tell them.

One-third of the all-female indie-folk-roots band, The Accidentals, Sav Madigan is an award-winning singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and session player with roots in Nashville, TN, and Traverse City, MI. She has worked with a diverse range of artists, including Lainey Wilson, Hannah Wicklund, and Peter Mulvey.

Joanne Shaw Taylor is set to embark on “The Heavy Soul” U.S. Tour this Fall. Fans can expect a mix of new songs from Heavy Soul, including some of her upcoming new singles and fan favorites.
