Dropjoy

Dropjoy music captivates audiences from the first high energy rock-n-roll blast to the last dying strums touching lonely hearts.

With a combination of thought provoking lyrics, driving guitar leads, melodic bass tones, and jazz inspired drum beats, Dropjoy live simply rocks.

Dropjoy began in 2004 when the long time duo of singer/songwriter/guitarist Nicki Walker and drummer Andy Light teamed up with bass player Etienne de Bruin in San Diego, CA. Dropjoy rocks from the buzz of San Diego's downtown Gaslamp quarter and the sunny festivals of Southern California, to the hip clubs of Hollywood & Los Angeles.

Through a combination of thought provoking lyrics, whiskey soft vocals and driving guitar leads, Nicki is a force to be reckoned with onstage.

According to CityBeat Magazine, she “sounds like Tracey Chapman channeling Hendrix.”

Born with congenial heart disease and heart transplant recipient in 2003, one can't help but think that Andy’s last beat will precede his last breath by only a couple of seconds. Originally from South Africa, Etienne provides that melodic bottom end to the soothing tones of the hottest 3 piece original rock band around.

Dropjoy’s first album Situational Ethics is due out September 2005. Listen to a few tracks, find out about upcoming shows, join the Dropjoy StreetTeam, and be invited to a cd release party in your area @ www.dropjoy.com.
