Overview
The Joy at Barbican Hall
The Joy are a South African band from a small town in KwaZulu-Natal, drawing on Zulu musical roots and bringing them into contemporary Afropop. Their breakout single, Isencane Lengane, and debut EP, Amabutho, introduced their harmony-led sound to wider audiences.
Alicia Keys, Sam Smith and Jennifer Hudson have all praised the group, and Hudson, who called them her favourite band, included them on The Gift of Love, a Christmas record. The Joy have appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Show and Later... with Jools Holland, and their live performances have taken in Glastonbury, Coachella, WOMADelaide, Sziget, Green Man, Pukkelpop and Way Out West. They recorded The Joy (Live Album) at Church Studios in London.
Recent engagements include Global Citizen Africa 2026 and Together for a Better Day, the annual tribute concert in honour of Avicii. The Barbican Hall, on Silk Street in London, is a concert venue, and this evening is a concert by The Joy rather than a tribute.
