"Joanne" is the fifth studio album by American singer Lady Gaga, released on October 21, 2016, by Streamline and Interscope Records. The album's production was handled by Gaga, Mark Ronson, and BloodPop, with additional contributions from Kevin Parker, Emile Haynie, Jeff Bhasker, and Josh Homme. Musically, "Joanne" features a stripped-down sound incorporating dance-pop, soft rock, and Americana with country influences, emphasizing Gaga's vocals. Lyrically, it explores themes of family and emotional experiences, heavily influenced by the death of her aunt, Joanne Stefani Germanotta. Gaga's acting experience on the television series "American Horror Story" also played a role in the album's creative process.
"Joanne" became Gaga's fourth consecutive album to debut at number one on the US Billboard 200 and reached the top ten in over 25 countries, achieving certifications in several of them. The album was supported by three singles: "Perfect Illusion," "Million Reasons," and the title track. "Perfect Illusion," released as the lead single on September 9, 2016, topped the charts in France, while "Million Reasons" peaked at number four in the United States. A piano version of "Joanne" was released to radio in selected territories as the third single.
The album received generally favorable reviews from critics, who praised Gaga's musical direction, vocals, production, and lyrical content, though some felt it lacked cohesiveness. "Joanne" was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards, with "Million Reasons" and "Joanne" earning nominations for Best Pop Solo Performance in separate years, the latter winning the award.
