Biography:
Joy Ike's music is an indie-infused mix of pop, jazz, and neo-soul, and has often been compared to the likes of Fiona Apple, Corrinne Bailey Rae, and Norah Jones. The Pittsburgh-grown, Nigerian singer/songwriter has only been writing and performing for 5 years but in that short amount of time has garnered much success in the independent music scene and has been voted “Best Solo Artist” by the Pittsburgh City Paper for the last three years.
