About Claudie Joy
In what seems like a blink of an eye, Claudie Joy and The Joy Boys are undoubtedly one of Perth's favourite emerging acts. Nominated for the West Australian Music award (WAM) for ‘Most Popular New Act’ in 2020, the band is gaining a large and loyal fan base who are dedicated to following Claudie’s quirky stage presence and her earnest-yet-playful lyrics.
Taking inspiration from the storytellers she adores, such as Haley Heynderickx and Adrianne Lenker, Claudie brings together the crunchiest parts of indie rock and folk into the delightful mess of sincerity, honesty, and obscurity that has seen her charm audiences all over Perth and beyond.
About the Youth Week WA KickstART Festival
Presented by Propel Youth Arts WA, the KickstART Festival has been the flagship event of Youth Week WA for 12 years running. KickstART offers over 60 free events - including workshops, talks, performances, mentorships, exhibitions, markets, and other special events - between 8 - 16 April, for young people aged 12-26.
Due to growing concerns about COVID-19 and the anticipated continued spread of Omicron across our communities in Boorloo (Perth) and WA, the Propel team has decided to pivot towards digital and hybrid formats for the delivery of the KickstART Festival this April.
The Youth Week WA KickstART Festival 2022 is presented by Propel Youth Arts WA and is funded by the Government of Western Australia through the Department of Communities and the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. KickstART is also supported by Lotterywest, the City of Perth, the City of Stirling, the City of Fremantle, and the City of Vincent.
