Joy Crookes - Radio 2's Piano Room Month

Three-time BRIT Award nominee Joy Crookes performs live from Maida Vale for Radio 2's Piano Room Month accompanied by the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Concert Orchestra. Plus PopMaster is back at 1030.

Three-time BRIT Award nominee Joy Crookes performs live from Maida Vale for Radio 2's Piano Room Month accompanied by the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Concert Orchestra. Born in London to a Bangladeshi-Bengali mum and an Irish father, Joy joins the station's biggest celebration of live music in a decade, with twenty of pop's best-loved artists performing live at 11.30 am each day throughout February. Other artists performing include Ed Sheeran, Emeli Sande, Ella Henderson, Craig David, Will Young and so many more.

Joy has just released her latest single 'Trouble' taken from her top five charting debut album 'Skin'. It follows the critically acclaimed 'When You Were Mine' that featured on the Radio 2 playlist at the end of last year.

Joy was nominated for the Rising Star Award at the 2020 Brit Awards and has recently finished a sold out UK tour that culminated in two shows at the Kentish Town Forum to celebrate the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ at 100. She was last heard on Radio 2 in October 2021 live in session with Jo Whiley and has a packed European Tour to look forward to later this month.

In addition to all the live broadcasts, an hour-long special will be broadcast on Radio 2 each Sunday from 7pm until 8pm featuring highlights from the previous week's performances.

Radio 2 delivered live music to listeners throughout the lockdown with House Music sessions - launched in 2020 - featuring some of the biggest names in music, including Rag N Bone Man, Jessie Ware, Barry Manilow, Melanie C, Cliff Richard, Ronan Keating, Travis, Aloe Blacc and Nell Bryden, with many accompanied remotely by the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Concert Orchestra.

Ken also has your love song dedications plus another round of the legendary PopMaster quiz. If you'd like to get in touch with the show email Ken.Bruce@bbc.co.uk
