Kari Joy

Kari Joy lives with her family in Missouri. Transplants from other regions, they thrive together as they tackle life and all its mysterious rigors and bounties. She is a mother of seven young men and has been married to her husband, Philip, since 2001. 

In her youth, Kari Joy strived to stand out in academia, sports, piano, and choir. Raised in a family of singers and instrumentalists she found her footing early. After years honing her talents, she participated with various groups and ensembles.  Now, after decades of performing, she has released her self-written debut album.

Kari Joy is a high-energy woman with a servant’s heart that will always lend an ear, a hand and an impressively strong shoulder. If you peel away the surface layers - wife, mother, friend, giver - you will find a true artist.

With thoughtful, genuine lyrics and a powerhouse voice, her music is an impactful and unforgettable experience. It is the beautifully raw, exposed truth of who she is. You’ll soon agree that it is the exposed truth of who we all are:  Honest, imperfect and stronger than we realize.
