JOY ASKEW AND HER BAND

Joy Askew came to New York City from the North of England in the 80’s and has enjoyed an embellished career playing keyboards and singing alongside music icons such as Peter Gabriel, Laurie Anderson, Joe Jackson, Rodney Crowell, Jack Bruce and Quincy Jones. She has performed with her own band on stages from NYC’s CBGBs to festivals in UK, USA, Japan and Europe and opened for David Bowie and David Byrne among others.
Now as a re-invented musical poet she has been a dedicated songwriter since the late nineties and her ninth album as an artist, Everything Is Different, was released in May 2022. She also sings in a choir that was featured on a Sufjan Stevens EP, collaborated with a British brass band and released a downtempo jazz electronica album along the way.
