guppy23 I remember when Joy made her big splash modeling the maga dress. So a big smile on her. When I hear the music from this EP, I get this same big smile on my face. I also loved it when you called out that politian or aide who groped you! I also loved that you are a go-getter with all the projects that your involved with.

mayarowl I know the darkness, and the path to the light, unknown to most, deep within. - Go within, or go without, in every sense of that phrase. Favorite track: The Darkness.

Gordon Frisbie I like to hide these songs in my travel, workout, and whatever playlists. This is how I play a trick on myself. When I least expect it, I’m humbled by a huge force of g-force Static. To be clear, “g” is short for giga-maga-gnarly-girly-grrrrl.

I Make The Static (lyrics) By Joy Villa 2014 This love is hotter than Tuscon Your lips are honey suckled fun You pushed my buttons made me wild I couldn’t quit you if I tried It’s automatic it’s automatic I make the static, I make the static They say you listen to what your told I say you’re young but acting old I may be bad but at least you're good Ain’t lost a battle, knock on wood It’s automatic it’s automatic I make the static, I make the static I keep a flower in my hair The smell of leather in the air This fiery love is all I need Let’s make a dirty magazine It’s automatic it’s automatic I make the static, I make the static Energy is rising up and it’s calling me calling me and I’m on my way this energy completes me and it’s coming on coming on and I’m on my way

The Darkness 03:15
The Darkness By Joy Villa 2014 I'll walk away pretending every things ok it burns the pavement of my soul I know the truth what I did before did me no good These scars prove My pain cuz I don’t want to live in the darkness I want to step into the light I can’t stand the darkness It’s seeping into my soul it’s seeping into my soul woah woah And it’s all that I know it’s all that I know I’ll turn the page a new story a new face I made the change for my self A heart to heart love has passed and now I feel alone this quill writes the song I don’t want to live in the darkness I want to step into the light I can’t stand the darkness It’s seeping into my soul it’s seeping into my soul woah woah And it’s all that I know it’s all that I know this hole is no place suffering needs change I’m breathing like it’s the first time sunshine dries rain spirit needs space I’m seeing like it’s the first time cuz I don’t want to live in the darkness I want to step into the light Cause I can’t stand the darkness It’s seeping into my soul It’s seeping into my soul woah woah And it’s all that I know it’s all that i know

Vagabonds 03:42
Vagabonds by Joy Villa My heels are itching to hit the road shake the stress off and just let go I wanna glitter like a disco ball let my light shine and just take off My heart is pounding to just be free bodies’ swaying like a Cali palm tree Vagabonds we keep on going we keep on going never slowing down We Move Beyond we make our own way we make our own way gypsies of yester day gypsies of yester day found my diamonds from a starlit sky drank my destiny from your eyes dust has settled and so have I I heard my voice in a coyote cry What if you never left? what if your never gone? what if you missed your chance? how would you get along? But you’ve got to live all of the life you can all of the life you can

about

While working in British producer Barrie Gledden's studio above his horse stables and 8 cats in Wakefield, UK, I accomplished more than I thought possible in a matter of 2 1/2 days. 4 of these personal tracks were songs with melodies and lyrics I had long since developed and kept incubated, waiting for the right conditions to fully grow and flourish. These were now those conditions.

In March 2014, Barrie and I worked tirelessly all day and into the night crafting the right notes on acoustic guitar before we recorded these final cuts for "I Make The Static". Being good friends beforehand made it so much fun, free and crazier. The Game of Thrones references made it into a serious nerdfest!

Please enjoy my debut EP project, there are lyrical concepts of sorrow, change, growth, powerlessness, power, sensuality, and my gypsy lifestyle all wrapped into rock and roll guitars, crunchy drumbeats, sensual and powerful girl rock vocals and melodic pop elements. May the stories in my songs speak to you as much as they spoke to me when I was blessed enough to create them.
