Joyce Wrice

Joyce Wrice’s MACHIKO and Dawn Richard’s creole culture lead a stacked R&B Friday, with Tobe Nwigwe’s THE BRIDGE, Johnny Venus’s solo debut and Danielle Ponder close behind.

A Seat at the Table turns 10 on Sept. 30. How Solange built it, how Syd, Jhené Aiko and Joyce Wrice carried it forward, her full discography, and what her new band rehearsal shows.

Joyce Wrice has finally put a date on her second album. MACHIKO arrives October 9, turning the long wait after Overgrown into a new era centered on intimacy, confidence and the risk of being fully seen.
