Joy Zimmerman brings compelling vocals and inventive songwriting to every performance. Her vocal and instrumental versatility reflect her love of diverse musical styles. Joy writes and performs songs ranging from lyrical ballads to rock to bluegrass. Too diverse for one box, Joy might remind you of Sara Bareilles on one song and Alanis Morissette on the next. 'As a songwriter, Joy Zimmerman is equally comfortable tackling styles from bluegrass, folk and blues to pop, rock and country. As a singer, Joy moves deftly between elements of Alison Krauss, Aimee Mann, Ani DeFranco and other distinctive artists, but still makes each song her own.' Fett, independent producer/engineer, Azalea Music Group, Nashville Joy is a singer/songwriter, a multi-instrumentalist, a social worker, and the Assistant Music Director at Saint Andrew Christian Church. Joy's career blends a love of music, spirituality, healing, and social justice. Her lyrics reflect her understanding of human emotion and experience. Performing as a solo act, in duos, and with a variety of local bands, she also leads workshops for children and adults. Recorded in Nashville, Joy's new CD, 'Mosaic', reveals her musical diversity and depth.
