Joel Kanji

Bio

From office life to studio life, Joel Kanji (pronounced ‘can jee’) has seen significant change in the last two years. After exiting the corporate world Joel dove into pursuing his true and original love of writing music. Not long after hanging up his suit, Joel ended an intense relationship and needed a mental escape. The writing of his debut single Turn Around would be that escape. Born and bred in Auckland, Joel was a finalist at various New Zealand song-writing competitions, and knew from a young age that he had a knack for song writing. A compliment on his song writing skills from renowned international artist Kimbra further endorsed his desire to continue writing.

Turn Around is an electronic dance pop song with a pop rock tinge that was produced by Scott Seabright. The track features talented session drummer, Adam Tobeck (Dancing with the Stars, X Factor) and Ben Malone (Parachute Producer) on bass. The song was recorded between Joel’s home studio and Parachute Studios in Auckland. It is essentially a fantasy song where Joel is envisioning his next relationship in order to help deal with the pain of his current loss.

Turn Around within a week of release was charted on Life FM's Youchart and has been on the stations main rotation since it's release.

Joel recently finished his second single with Scott Seabright, which will be released later this year.
