After studying music in college, she was introduced to Sleeping Bag Records owner Ron Resnick and he signed her. Sleeping Bag specialized in Freestryle dance music. Her 1987 debut album Come Into My Life was produced by veteran producer Kurtis Mantronik. Joyce wrote all the songs. All and All was the first single. It reached #6 on the Dance chart and #16 on the British Singles chart. The third single Come Into My Life reached #7 on the British Singles chart and #10 on the R&B Singles chart. Her 1989 album All About Love didn't do as well. The British label Warlock released both albums as a twofer. They are available as a digital download. Joyce's music has been sampled by hip hop guys, most notably the 2004 single I Wanna Thank Ya by Angie Stone featuring Snoop Dogg. Joyce rerecorded her hits in 2006 and she released an album in 2014. She performs on Freestyle nostalgia shows. Here's Joyce Sims performing All and All on Top Of The Pops 1988.
