Deluxe Double Album - Broken to Beautiful CD (17 songs)
THE NASHVILLE SOPHOMORE FOLLOW UP, DELUXE Double ALBUM:
"Absolutely AMAZING, what a GREAT RECORD states, 42- year music veteran legend and Producer, Les Butler!”
Butler, goes on to say, "Joy is a fantastic singer! She has got the goods! And wow, the supporting cast on this record - Grammy and Dove winning songwriters, Grammy and Dove winning musicians/engineers/ background singers all just amazing - off the charts!
Dominantly recorded at one of the most storied and legendary studios in Nashville, Hilltop Studios, which has produced hundreds of number one hit records in country music, gospel music, southern gospel and bluegrass music! Home of famous recordings from the Happy Goodmans to the Hinsons and everywhere in between.
We were there during such an usual time in history, Covid-19 hit the world, and with multiple studio delays and illnesses hitting so close to home - this record is timely for praising our Lord! More than a year in the making. You are going to be so blessed by the messages in these songs - relevant, real and authentic!"
Joy says “working with Les, was an honor and a privilege, truly a blessing from God. When my publicist, Pamela Dalsky suggested the match up in October of 2019," of the mega-talented veteran southern gospel Producer paired with this seasoned Christian singer-songwriter it was an instant connection! The two found common ground immediately with the right songs, styles and arrangements, as a matter of fact there are 17 fabulous songs on this project. Joy says, “ the message, is simple, these songs are about real-life struggles, storms and trials, but ultimately these are songs that will encourage, lift people up and give them HOPE. And for the lost, my prayer is that this will inspire people to open their hearts to follow Jesus; Because we are all, Broken to Beautiful."
Butler concludes by stating, “Joy knocked it out of the park! You're going to love this record, Broken to Beautiful! Well done."

This is the best and freshest sound I've heard in southern gospel in years! We saw them at the Ark, they were fabulous and we hope to see them at NQC!

Broken to Beautiful Album
Incredible! Totally blown away, why this girl is not on Gaither Homecoming or Winterjam Tours is a mystery to me! The best album I've heard from the Southern Gospel/Christian Community since the Martins were discovered! Great singer, Mr. Butler sure knows talent!
