Juniper Exclusivité Fnac Vinyle Blanc

Description

Chanteuse, songwriter and composer from South London, Joy Crookes presents her second album, Juniper. A work of striking honesty and remarkable courage, this album confirms Joy as one of the UK’s most essential and original voices. A unique talent, she delivers a record that is both emotionally raw and sonically rich; at times funny and moving, but above all deeply human.
After the success of her debut album Skin in 2021 (which earned her nominations at the BRIT Awards and the Mercury Prize, reached the Top 5 of the UK albums chart and was praised by The Guardian, NME and many others), Joy wanted to create an album that pushed her further, both musically and personally. Juniper is the result: a project marked by its depth and dynamism.
Written with her long-time collaborators, including Blue May (Kano, Jorja Smith), Tev’n (Stormzy) and Harvey Grant (Arlo Parks), Juniper includes several collaborations: with Vince Staples on « Pass The Salt » and with Kano on « Mathematics ».
The album title, which refers to resilience (juniper is a hardy plant that thrives in difficult conditions), announces an introspective journey through themes such as body acceptance, mental health, queer love, anxiety, the hypocrisy of the music industry and the ecstasy (and terror) of falling in love.
