When better joy launched late last year, her vivid indie-pop songs brought comparisons to The Cure and The Smiths. A solo project led by Bria Keely and backed up by her band, better joy has been described by tastemakers as ones to watch in 2024. Bria has a voice as colourful as Debbie Harry - a voice that needs to be up front and centre - and a knack for effortless storytelling. Ringing, complex riffs winding around Bria's vocals, dancing bass lines, characterful drumming and vulnerable lyrics: this is the sound of better joy. Fresh off the back of a support tour with Hard-Fi, better joy has been described by BBC Radio 6’s Chris Hawkins as one of his ‘favourite bands’ of 2024. With more music set to be released and an EP on the way, the future looks bright for better joy.
