Stefanie Joyce

Steeped in the tradition of country and folk music, Stefanie Joyce's songs take an unapologetic, hard look at the grit of life, blending keen lyrical observation with her signature tongue-in-cheek humor. From sin to sadness to small-town hypocrisy, the Nashville-based songwriter is unafraid to sing about uncomfortable truths, much like her icons Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, John Prine, and Evan Felkner (Turnpike Troubadours).

Stefanie grew up in the Pacific Northwest and moved to Nashville in 2017. After four years of penning songs for other artists (such as Mary-Heather Hickman's viral hits "Baptist Parking Lot" and "Treasure"), she released her debut EP Marlboro Reds & Motel Rooms in 2022. Idle Hands, the lead single, went viral on TikTok and amassed six-figure streaming numbers as well as placement on editorial playlists and coverage in MusicRow Magazine, Saving Country Music, and Wide Open Country.

Currently, Stefanie has a full-band residency at The Underdog in Nashville TN, as well as regular dates at iconic venues such as The Listening Room, The Bluebird Cafe, and City Winery. She is planning Pacific Northwest and Texas Tours for Summer 2023.
