Joy Clark

Joy Clark is a New Orleans-born singer-songwriter, lyrical guitarist and composer who creates soulful compositions that celebrate peace and the undeniable power of love. Her intricate rhythms and warm melodies reveal a sweet vulnerability that have enchanted audiences around the world. Growing up the daughter of a minister, she learned to create an atmosphere ripe for an emotional experience. As a child, Clark was obsessed with the guitar, and as she grew older found musical influences in Tracy Chapman, Lalah Hathaway and Anita Baker. She believes music is her ministry and intimacy is her superpower.

Clark is currently crisscrossing the country alternating between intimate solo dates and soul-stirring jubilees. She’s shared the stage with living legends including The Indigo Girls, Brandi Carlile, and Cyril Neville. Carlile called Joy Clark, “a supremely talented musician and artist … [who] spreads nothing but joy everywhere she goes.” Her debut album, to be released on Ani DiFranco’s Righteous Babe Records, will be available spring of 2024.
