Joanovarc were formed in 2004 by sisters Sam and Shelley Walker, with Deborah Wildish joining later that year. After five years as a trio, Laura Ozholl completed the line-up in 2009, helping Joanovarc to quickly solidify its reputation for exceptional musicianship, songwriting and unrelenting hard work. The band is already becoming a global phenomenon, with electrifying performances on tour in Europe, Japan, Asia, the Middle East, the Caribbean, and the Americas, including a concert on the legendary Hollywood Sunset Boulevard
The band’s singles have been playlisted by radio stations Planet Rock (including by the legendary Alice Cooper), Hard Rock Hell Radio, and Total Rock, plus gaining rave reviews from the international rock music press, including Classic Rock and Kerrang! Their single 'Say Sayonara' also appeared as a track on the XBox/Playstation game 'Rock Band'
Joanovarc were nominated for the ‘Angels of Rock’ Hard Rock Hell award in 2017 alongside rock legends Girlschool, and Rock Goddess. In 2017 'Seeds Of Summer' was the 14th most listened-to track of the year on Hard Rock Hell Radio
Their electrifying live shows, outstanding reviews and a rapidly growing fan base have seen legendary producer Gil Norton dub them "the new Queens of Rock", and Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson declaring "These girls can shred!"
