Biografie
Joan Jett is an icon, a pioneer, revered songwriter and musician. Her influence is felt not only in the music world, but also in the fabric of society, penetrating pop culture with her music, her signature style, and her social activism.
Joan is not only known for her 6 platinum albums, 17 hit rock tracks, and 9 Billboard "Top 40" singles, but also because her unique style and persona has influenced countless musicians, artists, fashion designers, and authors.
Her impact is felt in a wide range of places, from NBC Broadcast's Sunday Night Football, where you can hear Faith Hill sing the theme song against the melody of Joan's "I Hate Myself for Loving You" to American Chopper, the hit TLC show, which uses her seminal recording, "Bad Reputation," for their signature song and video.
Her music is heard in video games, nightclubs, sports arenas, TV shows and movies, and has continued to inspire new generations of listeners.
Joan's unique style is seen on the runways and in fashion magazines, in make up styles and street styles. Her style has even inspired designs in furniture.
Joan's legacy is not just topical; it is of social importance as well. When Joan co-founded The Runaways with drummer Sandy West, she made history and paved the way for all the women who came after her by pioneering a seminal all girl rock and roll band. She opened the door and inspired female musicians to pick up a guitar in the formerly male dominated landscape.
In keeping with her pioneering spirit, she became the first woman to start her own independent record company, Blackheart Records. The label continues to grow, giving emerging artists a chance to succeed. Joan recently designed with Gibson, her signature Joan Jett Gibson Melody Maker. This is the first signature electric guitar created by a woman, and the Joan Jett Melody Maker is one of the hottest guitars on the market.
Joan's influence and music speaks to all corners of society and spans generations. She is an activist, a philanthropist and timeless icon.
