WAT Artists and Songhubs present an intimate evening with Allysha Joy, sharing select works from her recent album ‘The Making of Silk’, as well as new songwriting explorations and conversation on how to move through this world with passion, grace and love.

Nominated for Jazz FM’s Soul Artist of the Year 2024 after the release of her latest album ‘The Making of Silk’ and her first world tour, charting across Europe, UK, Japan, North America and Australia, Allysha continues to expand into new territory as a prolific songwriter, performer and producer. She is currently releasing new music with London label, BBE ~ a collaborative album called ‘Solina’ as well as a new single ‘Murmuring’ landing with Finn Rees on Somewhere Soul.

Allysha Joy is a deeply-expressive singer, songwriter, producer & keys player hailing from Naarm/Melbourne. A uniquely-talented artist, her husky soulful voice, formidable Fender Rhodes prowess and raw poeticism has garnered legions of attentive fans the world over.

As an integral performer in the modern day jazz-soul scene, Allysha Joy has performed alongside the likes of PJ Morton, Snarky Puppy, Ezra Collective, The Teskey Brothers and Jordan Rakei to name a few, as well as performing at notable festivals such as We Out Here, Montreux Jazz Festival and New York WinterJazz.

Joining Allysha is special guest, musician and radio presenter Hannah McKittrick. Her songs are poetic inquiries into loss, intimacy and weathering emotional turbulence. Equipped with a voice that instantly hushes a room, and an almost reverent sensitivity, to be in the world of Hannah's music is be engulfed and mystified by its gentle power.
