Her debut album, Start from Here, was released in January 2008 as a double-disc set, one in English and the other in Chinese. The album reached No.1 in Taiwan and has been popular throughout Southeast Asia. In June 2008, it was released in Japan. Her second album, Joanna & Wang Ruo-lin, which includes her all-original endeavor, The Adult Storybook, was released in January 2009. CareerAs she was raised in the United States, Wang was exposed to many classic pop music acts, including but not limited to: The Beatles, Queen, and Oingo Boingo. Among her major influences are Danny Elfman, Yoeko Kurahashi (倉橋ヨエコ), Paul McCartney, and video game soundtracks, most notably those from the Castlevania, Zelda, and Mario series. She has stated in her YouTube videos[2] and in interviews[3][4] that she dislikes her debut and rejects it as her own work. Wang is a left-handed guitarist. She has performed some of her own work and has covered various popular songs in English and in Chinese on Taiwanese television programs. Starting in 2013, Joanna began occasionally performing with a band under the name Alferd Packer & The Weird Uncles.[5] In March 2016, Joanna performed in a production of the musical Turn Left, Turn Right, based on the illustrated book of the same name, sometimes known as A Chance of Sunshine in English.[6] Wang's rendition of Pure Imagination from her album Midnight Cinema was used for the Samsung Galaxy Fold product unveiling advertisement in February 2019[7].
