Ik begin eerlijk gezegd wel van de regelmaat van Joanne Shaw Taylor te houden. Had ik u immers begin maart niet beloofd dat we elkaar deze maand opnieuw zouden spreken? Belofte maakt schuld en dus presenteer ik u hier haar gloednieuwe single/video The Trouble With Love en wederom is dat een klassebak van een song.
Stevig tempo (altijd goed voor wat meer beweging), een catchy groove en fijn gitaarwerk. Wat wil een mens nog meer? Wel, misschien de details over haar aankomende nieuwe album? Misschien voor onze maandelijks update in mei ...

Built around a driving groove and lifted by Joanne’s signature guitar tone, “The Trouble With Love” moves between tension and release, mirroring the emotional push and pull at the heart of the song. Her soulful vocal performance carries the weight of that experience, while the arrangement builds into soaring moments that underline both the beauty and chaos that love can bring.
“I always had this song as the heart of the album,” Joanne shares. “Love is such a powerful emotion that we’ve been writing songs about it for hundreds of years. For this song I wanted to try and document the push and pull of it, the highs and the lows. And yes, the trouble it can cause.”
Anchored by a memorable hook and elevated by Joanne’s searing guitar work, the track balances introspection with energy, turning a deeply personal theme into something universally relatable. The accompanying video further brings that tension to life, visually capturing the emotional cycle that defines the song.
“The Trouble With Love” arrives as the latest preview of Joanne’s forthcoming studio album, due out later this year. It follows recent singles including the defiant blues-gospel anthem “Hell Or High Water” and the collaborative standout “What Good Is My Love?” featuring Orianthi. Together, these songs point toward a body of work that continues to expand Joanne’s sound while staying rooted in the emotional honesty that defines her songwriting.
