Edito de Super Happy Family Wish RecordTake one loud guitar, add two cups of big drums then sprinkle with a healthy dash of beautifully arranged harmony and melody and you have Chicago's new royal family of power pop, JoyFocus. With influences rooted in everything from the classic rock of the 60's & 70's to 80's new wave and Glam rock, the music of JoyFocus pays tribute to most of the things that radio loves to play and all of the things people love to hear. Covering all of the pop music bases, this band has crafted a definitive sound that seems to draw you in and keep you wanting more.
"The last time I checked, the 'pop' in 'pop music' was short for the word popular. It seem kind of tough to be a 'pop' band if no one likes your music" says Currence. "I know that is terribly 'un-cool' to be too 'poppy' or to likeable if you are in a band, but quite frankly -we don't really care. If you don't like our music, don't buy it or listen to it, you won't be hurting our feelings."
The culmination of long time musical partners Rikk Currence and Ray Kainz, JoyFocus is the ideal marriage of art and entertainment. Songs that make you smile while playing them over and over again, and a live show that will blow your mind while reminding you of why you go to concerts in the first place. To complete the vision for this amazing band, Currence and Kainz had to look no further than respected local rock diva Holly Joy. Bringing to the table her candy sweet voice and brilliant sense of harmony, Holly became the crown jewel in their power pop crown.
SUPER HAPPY FAMILY WISH RECORD, the debut release from JoyFocus, is a pop rock tour de force full of guitar driven, melody soaked pop songs that stick to your ears and rattle around in your head for hours. The equivalent of audio heroine, this record will suck you into pop rock addiction and then leave you begging for more.
Ready to take over all of your auditory senses, JoyFocus is not only here for your listening enjoyment, but for you listening entertainment as well.
