This is what a rockstar looks like in 2019.
Despite this progress, the Manchester scene that birthed bands like Joy Division and The Smiths is still seen as the site of the Guitar Holy Grail for many British music fans, and that's a perception that's difficult to shake. By focussing on that, a time shaped by the kind of furore and angst that lead thousands of young people to resonate with them, we erase the plethora of artists from elsewhere whose talents are seldom uttered in that respected roster of guitar players.
“Naturally, as a society we’ll associate it with white British men,” Joy says, “But Mali in West Africa has the biggest guitar scene in the whole world – the best guitars I’ve ever heard in my fuckin’ life!” Joy's own sound is indebted to the worldly kind of blues that transformed Amy Winehouse into an international superstar. Her new songis a rousing, bass-led ode to the city she was raised in.
We've been trained to see the two sides of guitar music as a binary, unambiguous split: powerful and vulnerable; masculine and feminine; electric and acoustic, and there's a tendency to disregard women’s art if the woman in question doesn’t adhere to the side that's reflective of their “femininity”.
