There are 2 bands named Pope Joan

1) a leftfield-pop band from Brighton, UK.

Pope Joan have had the pleasure of sharing a stage with The Invisible; Maps and Atlases; Bearsuit; New Young Pony Club; Danananankroyd; Calories; The Fall; Fithy Dukes; Munch Munch: Friendship; Shy Child; Early Day Miners; Apse and load of other ace bands.

Falling somewhere between the kinetic playfulness of Les Savy Fav, quirky pop of early-era XTC and the sonic spectrum of TV on the Radio, Pope Joan are a band that demand serious attention and are set to establish themselves as part of the new wave of exciting and experimental British art-pop.

2) a noise act from Texas consisting of Vanessa Gates and Joseph Gates.
