Joanna Bailie was born in London in 1973 and now lives in Berlin. She studied composition with Richard Barrett, electronic music at the Koninklijk Conservatorium in Holland and in 1999 won a fellowship to study at Columbia University. She completed her PhD at City, University of London in 2018.

She has been programmed at events such as the Donaueschinger Musiktage, ECLAT, Venice Biennale, Huddersfield, SPOR Festival, MaerzMusik, Musica Strasbourg, Rainy Days Festival Luxembourg, Darmstadt, Borealis Festival, and Ultima.
Her recent work includes chamber music and installation, and is characterized by the use of manipulated field recordings and other sound media together with acoustic instruments.
