JOY MORALES

KEYS/VOCALS

PRODUCTION/SONGWRITING

ABOUT

After migrating from Miami during the summer of 2012 to study at The New School for Jazz, Joy Morales became a New York City based keyboardist/singer-songwriter who is now frequently seen performing with a number of acts in and around the pop/R&B scene. 

At the start of 2017, she began to travel extensively throughout the U.S., U.K. and Europe. 
Having worked with artists such as: Karol G, Hozier, Kadhja Bonet, Amber Mark, Tiana Major9 and more, her multiple musical talents are evident in every performance - whether upfront, behind a keyboard, or simply sharing the space with band mates.
Upon recently receiving a prestigious grant from pop artist and celebrity Bebe Rexha in 2019, Joy released her first ever EP entitled 'Neuma’s Cry' during the winter of 2020. 
Deftly navigating the space between the discomfort of youth and the fearful void of modern adulthood, 'Neuma’s Cry' is the voice in the distance, comforting and rejoicing. Praising and still yearning while making its way into the foreground. 
Joy's is a voice we need and a story that must be told.
