Crafting words and music from the early age of 11, Joy Hanna has inherently found her voice and expression through song. Inspired by both legendary singer/songwriters and pop artists of today, Joy’s story-telling is accompanied by acoustic guitar and piano-driven melodies.

Joy was actively singing in churches, recording her original songs and touring until she graduated from Liberty University in 2013. After graduating, Joy joined the music staff at her church in the metro DC area, where she worked for two years, during which she recorded her third full length album titled “Set Free,” a compilation of songs written to raise awareness about the issue of modern day slavery. “Set Free” released in March 2015 and has been distributed to anti-trafficking organizations around the world.

In September of 2019, Joy released a collection of love songs on her fourth independent project titled, “Just You and Me.”

Joy and her husband and two boys live in Knoxville, TN, where she leads worship and writes songs with and for other artists. Listen to songs written by Joy here.
