JOY CROOKES
SHARES MUCH ANTICIPATED DEBUT ALBUM SKIN
VIA INSANITY RECORDS

“a rich, varied and considered body of work… ‘Skin’ is an album worthy of elevating the singer
into the realm of Britain’s classiest chart-bothering talents. It does everything a debut should.”

TORONTO, ON – October 15, 2021 – Today, Joy Crookes has shares her much anticipated debut album, Skin, released via Insanity Records, available to purchase or stream now. It includes singles, Feet Don’t Fail Me Now, title track Skin, When You Were Mine and Trouble. Joy will tour later this year in celebration of the new album; the run kicks off in November in Brighton, takes in two nights at O2 Forum Kentish Town, and extends into next year when Joy will take the show out to Europe. Full list of dates below.

With Joy credited as an executive producer on the album, alongside the formidable Blue May (Kano, Blood Orange), Skin is a hugely personal, gamechanging body of work from one of the UK’s boldest and brightest young talents. A collection of songs built and honed throughout her adolescence and into her early twenties, and finessed last year within the most turbulent of circumstances, Skin touches on topics such as mental health, relationships, and politics all with grace and sensitivity. Joy has created what can only be described as a truly special body of work that is both perfectly of the moment, and entirely timeless. Skin’s album artwork is shot by Carlota Guerrero, who has previously worked with Arca, Chloe x Halle, and Solange for all of her imagery for A Seat At The Table. Listen to Skin here.
