Career Highlights (Bio):

Joey Collins is a singer-songwriter and producer based in Nottingham, England. His sound is introspective and emotional, with a penchant for minimalistic arrangements and astonishing lyrics with a personal twist. His catalog of music is as prolific as it is diverse. From his first release in 2017, he’s been carefully developing and honing his craft, which has greatly paid off with the release his debut album ‘Yin-Yang’. The UK based singer-songwriter has earnestly selected 14 songs for us to indulge upon. In the aptly named LP, he explores the duality of life through song.

Showcasing continuous growth as a performer and lyricist, he has received great support from BBC Introducing from Dean Jackson, in which he has received ‘Track of the week’ multiple times, whilst Tom Robinson aired ‘Looked Upon A Shore’ on ‘BBC Radio 6 Music's Introducing Mixtape’ (10/02/2020). Collins also placed in the BBC Introducing top 25 “most played” chart out of the entire East Midlands music scene in 2020 and 2022.

‘Feed Me Your Love’ succeeded expectations in 2021, with the single’s mix by the notable Guy Elderfield (The Libertines and Jimmy Eat World). The track was picked up by Spotify and landed on ‘All New Rock’ and ‘Alt Rocked’ playlists - a showcase featuring the likes of the Foo Fighters, Kings of Leon and Hayley Williams.


"With a range of influences from Jeff Buckley to Thom Yorke, Joey Collins has a mature and melancholic tone that sends shivers down your spine." - BBC Introducing

"If the key to prolonged success is diversity, then Joey Collins will be a name everyone will know for years to come." - Musik Magazine

“A strikingly original artist in the modern era of over-produced, zealous pop, Collins possesses an emotional and lyrical dexterity to satisfy tortured souls and hopeful romantics alike.”
— THE MIC MAGAZINE
