Биография

Joey Nowyuk is a chart-topping, award-winning singer and songwriter from Pangnirtung, Nunavut. Raised by a community that instilled in him the value of culture and language, the roots and indie-rock musician started writing songs as a child. He first picked up the guitar as a teenager when a travelling music workshop came to his hometown and he’s been playing ever since. Today, Nowyuk’s beat-heavy, guitar-driven songs – some in Inuktitut, some in English – tell stories of life, love, and growing up in the North, always shining a ray of optimism and hope throughout. With the release of his debut album, Tumitit, and his upcoming covers album, Inuugama, Nowyuk continues to rise in the music scene. His songs “Nalligigakku (Because I Love Her)” and “Pray (Tussiaq)” have both reached #1 on the Indigenous Music Countdown. Nowyuk is also an Indigenous Music Award winner and a three-time winner of the Qilaut songwriting contest. His ongoing successes put him in the ranks of celebrated Inuit artists, strengthening their language and culture through music. With Tumitit behind him and Inuugama on the horizon, Nowyuk continues to make music, now experimenting with new styles, techniques, and genres. With several planned concerts in the next year, the future looks bright for this Nunavummiut artist. To stay up to date with Joey Nowyuk, follow him on socials or check out www.joeynowyuk.com
