JOYCE’s Greatest Love of All festivities continues with an arguably definitive sound of the eighties JOYXE Sounds playlist, compiled by London-based Richard Quinn, who is no stranger to power shoulders and high octane energy. Quinn went stratospheric when Her Majesty the Queen attended his show in 2018, and has since been risen to great heights. His Joyce Sounds playlist features Kate Bush, Cyndi Lauper, Bronski Beat, New Order, ending with guilty-turned-great pleasure Wilson Philips. Turn up the volume dial on both your floral frocks and speakers, and give us your us your best air mic action.
