Die Lady aus Deutschland mit Gitarre wurde bei „Wonderland“ von Dave Krusen (erster Schlagzeuger der US-Rockband Pearl Jam) am Schlagzeug, Brad Smith am Bass und Christopher Thorn an der Elektrogitarre (Gründungsmitglieder der Alternative-Rock-Band Blind Melon aus Mississippi) sowie Frank Ortegel auf der Elektro- und Akustikgitarre sowie Mandoline unterstützt.
Der Titel des neuen Albums ist Programm und bei den zwölf herausragenden Tracks zeigt sich die musikalische Vielfältigkeit der gebürtigen Kölnerin. Seien es „Love to Laugh“, „Free Your Mind“ oder die kritische Songs „Big Fish“ und „Darkness“. In „Darkness“ werden die ganz persönlichen Eindrücke und Zweifel von US-Soldaten aus dem Afghanistan-Einsatz verarbeitet und für sie stellvertretend die Frage an alle Regierungen gestellt, die ihre Soldaten unter falschen Vorwänden in den Krieg schicken: „Ich halte die Dunkelheit von dir fern, aber würdest du das auch für mich machen?“
Ein ganz besonderes Juwel ist „Cash & Dylan“, das mehr als nur eine Hommage an Johnny Cash und Bob Dylan ist. Bei diesem Song kombiniert Wolfsberg Statements, die die beiden Künstler über den jeweils anderen gemacht haben, zu einem Lied und fügt im Chorus und in der Bridge ihre ganz eigene Liebeserklärung an die beiden ein. Mit gekonnter Raffinesse werden die jeweiligen Zitate über den anderen mit dem für Cash typischen Country-Rhythmus und die für Dylan typischen Folk- und Rock-Rhythmen untermalt. Entstanden ist ein musikalisches Kunstwerk, bei dem man den Eindruck hat, dass Cash und Dylan gemeinsam auf der Bühne performen.
Eine Deutschlandtour von Joon Wolfsberg mit ihren vier US-Bandmitgliedern ist in Planung. Bis dorthin wird Joon mit ihrem Daddy Joe bei mehreren Open-Air Konzerten auftreten.

Joon Wolfsberg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Into the night, I'm on my own
I don't know what happens now
I'm all alone with my guitar Ohhhhh
I'm searching for a new way
To tell you what I wanna say
It doesn't matter where you stayed
The thing that matters is where you will go
The thing that matters is what you will be
What you will be
Don't move too fast, don't rest too long
I'm not afraid I'm going on
Breath in the air of the day
Don't care about what others say
It doesn't matter where you come from
It doesn't matter where you stayed
The thing that matters is where you will go
The thing that matters is what you will be
What you will be
It doesn't matter where you come from
It doesn't matter where you stayed
The thing that matters is where you will go
The thing that matters is what you will be
What you will be
