Joy Ike 

Joy Ike is a piano-based singer/songwriter out of Pittsburgh, PA. Her fans have compared her vocally to Corinne Bailey Rae, Fiona Apple, and Regina Spektor. Her honest, bittersweet songwriting has earned her the title of Pittsburgh City Paper's "Best Solo Artist" for the fourth year in a row and the chance to open for a number of national touring act. Her music has turned up on Relevant Magazine's The Drop, and various NPR affiliates in the northeast. A write-up on NPR's All Things Considered says "The depth of subjects she tackles in her poetic lyrics are perfectly complemented by a unique blend of neo-soul, with just the right dash of pop…a truly compelling act to watch in person, with the ability to create an intimate setting in locations big and small." She is currently on tour in support of her new album, All or Nothing.
