Joel Ansett
Inspired by Mako Fujimura's vision of art as culture care, Ansett writes songs with healing always in mind. He moved to Denver, Colorado in 2014 and started playing every local open mic he could find; and has since found fans all over the country with more than 18 million streams online, a song placed in Marvel’s “The Punisher” , and the title of “songwriter to watch” from The Huffington Post. The songs combine folk and R&B to great effect, and beyond the genre, Artist Review wrote: “This music is soul therapy."
