Joana and the Wolf
Joana and the Wolf was a London-based alternative new wave rock band,〔 formed in 2005. Musical influences included Patti Smith, PJ Harvey,〔 The Stooges, and Björk.
==Formation and members==
The band was made up of lead singer and songwriter Joana Glaza (Joana Mikalauskaitė, who has a degree from the University of Vilnius), guitarist Ali, bassist Katie and drummer Louis.〔 Joana is originally from Lithuania, and has always sung in English since she was a child;〔 the rest of the band are English.
The band formed in summer 2005 after Joana and Ali met through an advert on Loot.〔 Ali originally suggested the name "Joana and the Bitches" as a joke, and Joana changed it to "Wolf" partly due to the use of the wolf in Lithuanian symbolism.〔 The band found new management in 2010, and changed their sound, taking influences from Eastern European folk and classical music.
About their influences, Joana says that “I totally like (Bush ) but it’s Wikipedia bullshit again that I’m really influenced by her."〔 She says that PJ Harvey became an influence after people began comparing them: "The last real female influence for me is PJ Harvey – I have almost all her records. But only because when we released our first single ‘Purple Nights’ everyone was comparing me, and our sound to her. I knew a bit about her at the time but I was intrigued and I wanted to get deeper to try to understand the basis of the comparison."〔
