Joy Rose at 606 Club

Joy’s remarkable vocal talents have been making serious waves amongst those who really know. Although you may not recognise the name, there’s a very good chance you will recognise the remarkable voice, as Joy has been a featured performer with Sting, Bluey (Icognito) and Jason Rebello (Jeff Beck). She has finally decided to move out from her highly successful career as a studio singer to front her own band, and what a band it promises to be! With her formidable vocal range and power she produces a set of original material that she describes as “a fusion of jazz, soul and gospel”, which is just awesome (ask Sting!). Joy will be performing songs from her CD, “The Rose in Me” recorded shortly after her single 'Summer is Here' reached no 1 in the UK soul charts, as well as her songs from her latest EP, “Wonderful”. Featuring some of the best groove players in the country, including Mike Gorman on keyboard, Bobby Quigley (best known as the co-leader of the Carl Hudson Groove nights here at the Club) on guitar and the killer rhythm section of Neville Malcolm on bass and Jose Joyette on drums, this is seriously good music....

“When Joy Rose joined Sting for a duet she sang with such power and conviction that one could wonder why she did not sing on Sting’s album instead of Mary J Blige. She knocked the audience dead and got a standing ovation.” The Current;
“Joy Rose is yet another reminder that Sting knows the importance of surrounding himself with ‘A’ list musicians, she is simply breathtaking.” SmoothJazzNow;
