News and Updates

Valerie Joyce by Derek WongValerie Joyce came by our Blue Coast Studios to perform a followup to last year’s Special Event. Accompanied on guitar by the talented Marco de Carvalho, Valerie and Marco perform 10 songs including a holiday favorite, ” Christmas Time is Here,” a Vince Guaraldi classic. Three of the songs were recorded live at the California Audio Show in the Sony room in front of a very live and welcoming audience. To keep that spirit, the Sony crew came to the live recordings. The audience is the member of the band you don’t see but who make a difference!

Every nuance and emotion is exposed in live recording. Valerie and Marco do an incredible job bringing their brand of jazz to us and your home. There’s also a free download of a second holiday song.

Valerie was recently reviewed in The Jordan Times:

Cool, tranquil and easy, that’s the kind of jazz Valerie Joyce sings. “New York Blue” is an album by the young lady with American and Japanese blood in her veins. It features 13 tracks of soothing material that is guaranteed to lower your pulse rate and make you forget your troubles, if only for the duration of the playback.

If Joyce’s voice is the main ingredient of the recipe to sonic heaven, the entire album, including the pristine performance of the instrumentalists and the high-tech recording by Chesky as well, they all contribute to make a quality of production that is hard to surpass. We are at the opposite of loud and show off here. It’s all done with finesse, with subtlety and good taste.
