Vancouver
Joyce Island is the musical creation of Vancouver songwriter, guitar player and vocalist Lisa Joyce. Her highly acclaimed debut self-titled EP was released in the spring of 2013. The album possesses a timeless, vintage rock 'n' roll quality, with Canadiana alt-country undertones.
The Province says that "Joyce Island is a rarity for Vancouver - a woman who rocks," while Vancouver Music Review compares her to "Heart and other retro-femme sounds." Discorder Magazine raves that “Joyce assumes the confident swagger of Tom-Petty-styled Americana before drenching it in blossoming female vocals that triumphantly stand their ground. She is receiving airplay on CBC Radio Canada as well as Canadian college radio.
