   About Joie De Vivre
"Some Joie songs are about that girl who let you take her to prom. Other songs are about being 19 and feeling bad inside. Mostly they're about the wonderful feeling of introspection that comes when you're 4 beers deep and the tempos never top 90bpm."
-Alex "Danger" Stewart

You can buy our cd locally @ Culture Shock in Rockford, IL...support local business!!!

Ironically, as much as your down tempo/minimalist/emo music speaks to me, i do not consider myself the average teenager. i'm a man.

If you steal me a cornet, I could learn Paul's parts in 2-3 weeks.  Has Zach Staas ever tried to play one?  He knows more instruments than I do. 


This band should play in Chicago soon.
