Joyce Wrice

Joyce Wrice is a San Diego-born, Los Angeles-based R&B singer-songwriter whose Japanese and African-American heritage positions her as a cultural bridge across Los Angeles, London, and Tokyo. With over 100 million global streams, critical acclaim from NPR, Billboard, and Rolling Stone, and collaborations with Kaytranada, Lucky Daye, Freddie Gibbs, and Masego, she has established herself as one of contemporary R&B’s most compelling voices. Her 2021 debut album Overgrown (executive produced by D’Mile) earned her a Juno Award nomination and the theme song for Disney+’s The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder. New music is on the way.
