About Joyce
In 1967, then 19-year-old Brazilian singer, songwriter, and guitarist Joyce changed Brazilian music when her controversial song "Me Disseram," the first song by a Brazilian woman from the first-person feminine perspective, appeared. In 1980, she released Feminina, that influenced several generations of women artists. Moreno has issued dozens of albums and penned over 400 original songs; many have been covered. She has collaborated with Brazilian music royalty including Dori Caymmi and Vinicius de Moraes. Later outings, including Hard Bossa, Just a Little Bit Crazy, and Samba-Jazz & Outras Bossas (with husband Tutty Moreno) became staples of Euro club culture. Since 2009's Aquarius with pianist João Donato, she has performed as "Joyce Moreno." In 2020, she released 50, and in 2022, Natureza appeared -- an unissued 1977 collaboration with Claus Ogerman and an all-star band and orchestra. The married duo worked with Adrian Younge on 2026's Joyce and Tutty Moreno JID027.
Joyce has also released music as a member of Joyce & Banda Maluca.
