Black vinyl sporting punk rockers Joybox have announced that the band will be releasing their debut full length Informal Deviance due out September 24, 2013 in Europe through Monroe Entertainment Records Group. The band recently performed for an audience at an exclusive art gala in New York City as guests of artists William Quigley and Ben Moon. Frontman Eddie Star comments on the experience:
“We were invited because Mr. Quigley liked our songs and thought our provocative lyrics matched the theme of the show. If you want safe lyrics and a quiet set while dinner guests converse- you’ve come to the wrong place.”
Joybox made their debut performance in front of one of the most exclusive art galas to hit New York in 2013. Despite rainy weather the band played to guests of artists William Quigley (www.quigleyart.com) and Ben Moon.(www.worldofbenmoon.com) Their art show titled “The Pleasurist” included a charity auction that benefited Guild Hall. Quigley who hosted the party picked the band after hearing an advance copy of their forthcoming album “Informal Deviance” due out September 24th in Europe through Monroe Entertainment Records Group.

Dressed in black vinyl, Joybox singer/rhythm guitarist Eddie Star dominated the audience. Halfway thru the set the East Hampton Police were called to the gallery about noise complaints. The rain and the police did not stop the party, which was an enormous success.

About Joybox
Joybox is Eddie Star (Lead Vocals/Rhythm Guitar), Bob Mars (Drums/Vocals), and Christian Schenck (Lead Guitar – Vocals).

The debut Joybox album titled Informal Deviance will be released in Europe on September 24th. European tour dates to be announced.
