“Joy Valencia is one prime current example in the music world that shows how much can be accomplished with enough drive, spirit, and, naturally, talent. Hers is a homegrown feel with a brilliant polish that, while almost Hollywood-esque in nature, is built on a foundation of a mutual, symbiotic support between herself and her fans. Not depending on the backing of a label, genuine is only one way to describe the Chicago-born, now Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, musician and producer – stunning, eclectic, varied in style of genre (folk rock, pop, and cabaret comprising her works) are a few others. You can find her first music video for the catchy, cheeky single “Don’t Wake the Lion”, as well as more reasons to adore Joy Valencia, in our BeatCrave Fav series.” - Candace Butler, BeatCrave.com

I start around 42:00
“Singer-songwriter Joy Valencia was a recent guest on The Time Machine. Joy was wonderful enough to let us play her music on the Maui airwaves the past year while she is busy completing her first album with what she refers to as the juicy flavors of late-1960s psychedelic pop and a twist of cabaret. The Time Machine’s radio host Michael McCartney couldn’t help but ask about what he heard as a Harry Nilsson influence. Listen to the broadcast to hear Joy reply to that and share stories about her songwriting craft.”
My radio interview is airing right now from 5-6pm PDT on The Time Machine in Maui♥ But you can listen to it streaming LIVE herehttp://ttm.popchats.com/ - and I might just be in the chatroom.. 
See the ASTARS fashion movie on the NYLON website!
