About Joy - Bio

Joy Zimmerman began playing violin the summer before she began walking to kindergarten. Many miles and decades of classical music later, Joy picked up a guitar, found her own voice, and started reinventing herself.

During this metamorphosis, she discovered a talent for songwriting. This newfound passion combines a lifetime of studying relationships and connections with her love of music--encompassing driving rock, lyrical ballads, stirring classical pieces, and pounding dance rhythms.

Joy's songs are infused with emotion and keen observations based on life experiences, from the zookeeper of her youth to motherhood of today, from symphony member to band member, from grief counselor to social worker.

Joy also performs with On The Record, Cindy Egger, and at Saint Andrew Christian Church, Olathe, Kansas.
