Krysta Joy
Earthy tones and empowering lyrics ground Krysta Joy in a soulful output of
her honest ramblings.
Starting as a multi-instrumentalist at the tender age of 7, Krysta was a drummer first before picking up the guitar and song-writing a year later. Today, the songstress plays the guitar with the tenacity of a seasoned drummer and colours in her music with lyrics of hope.
Krysta aspires to inspire all to embody the value of self-love and growth in every season of life, intentionally revolving her music around such themes and complimenting it with her flair for music arrangement. Her live performances are punctuated with the artfulness of practiced music sensibilities and the vulnerability of lyrical story-telling.
After being awarded the Noise Music Award by the National Arts Council in 2018, Krysta has ventured out to establish her name and purpose in the local music scene. She has been featured on The Straits’ Times, Bandwagon, Youth.SG, 987FM and other media channels, as well as released her debut 5-track EP ‘Enjoy the Process’ in August 2019. She also went on to be selected as an artist for *SCAPE's Alt. Residency in 2020.
Her latest 10-track LP ‘Embrace the Progress’ is an extension of the previously mentioned work, expanding on the themes of hope and growth. Through this vulnerable musical narrative, Krysta has been encouraging listeners who relate to the content, as well as promoting the importance of celebrating the small wins in life.
