As an award winning saxophonist, flutist and vocalist from Dallas, TX,  Joyce covers the gamut of musical influence, style and genre from traditional to contemporary jazz and classical to R&B, funk, fusion, blues, pop, and Gospel/Christian.  The mixing and blending of musical styles in her upbringing is definitely her forte and  an asset to writing music and entertainment.  Whether it's upbeat music or sultry smooth jazz or ballads, Joyce provides sensational musical entertainment on saxophone (soprano, alto and tenor), flute and vocals that caters to the fans or venue.
