Joy Crookes
Performance: The Library at 15:30 - 16:00
At only 18 years old, South London-based artist Joy Crookes, is something of an anomaly for a girl of her age. Born and raised in Elephant and Castle, Joy has had a passion for music since she was young - but whilst many other girls of her age would still be working out where their life might be heading, Joy’s path appears to have been set in stone for a while.
It’s instantly evident that Joy is a natural wordsmith, penning personal lyrics that are both frank, and engaging - not just for her years but by any standard. Her diverse array of musical influences manifest in a signature sound that is complex, haunting and sophisticated.
