A year ago Joy DM’d me and asked me to come and meet her at her flat in Elephant and Castle. Today her debut album ‘SKIN’ came out and I’m so incredible proud to have been able to help her make it. ___ I could write an entire essay on how much I believe in Joy, what incredible instincts she has, how sharp, funny, caring, and wise beyond her years she is. I’m so proud of you @joycrookes! __ I’m also especially proud of this album for all of the amazing musicians and collaborators who came and graced the recording sessions, many of which are such a key part of any record I make and have to be given enormous credit. Sam @thevernonspring 🎹 you really helped us crack this record open. Tom @tomskinnermusic 🥁 you are the absolute backbone of this record. Amy @amylangleymusic 🎻your string arrangements never fail to blow me away! Big Tevvy @_tevn_ “THE TEV LAYER” 🎶 Spike @markspikestent A career highlight getting to work with you on some of these mixes! 🎚@mullarkeybass @daynajfisher @dave_okumu_ 🎸 @reubenjames 🎹 @theon_cross, @nat_e_cross and all the brass gang 🎺 @vulavox, @ladonnamarie2 @shezaronly @jwarnerofficial 🎤 @georgeachung @vynehall @barneylister @konk_studios @simonfrancismastering 🎛 @heddaudio 🎧 @charliowen @xxviiarts @fin_munro @glynaikins @alastair.kinross @andyvarley @insanityrecords @sonymusicuk 💿 JOY CROOKES ‘SKIN’ OUT NOW - goo and copppppp it.
