Joy Crookes

Joy Crookes will return in 2025 not only with brand-new music, but also in our very own MAX! This year, the singer once again affirmed her place as one of the most striking voices to come out of the United Kingdom, and as one of the most talented songwriters of her generation.

After three years of silence, Joy is back with music that is honest, powerful, and full of emotion. She deliberately took the time to pause, grow, and stay true to her own sound – without losing the emotion and energy that made her 2021 debut album Skin so special.

Joy draws inspiration from legendary artists such as Nina Simone, Amy Winehouse, and Nick Drake. You can hear those influences in her lyrics and melodies – personal, relatable, and always with her own unique twist.
