2008 album from Joan As Policewoman (AKA Joan Wasser, formerly of Antony & The Johnsons). Real Life brought Joan Wasser out of the shadows and established her as that rare thing, a truly unique and original voice. Songwriter, singer and multi-instrumentalist, Joan has bewitched fans across Europe and the US over the last two years and is set to garner a wealth of new devotees with To Survive, an album of unashamedly heartfelt songs. In Joan's  words, ''I am always trying to dig deeper into the emotional experience. I want to access the most honest place I can, distill it and present it in a way that makes sense musically.'' 1
