Reviews of To the Girl: 

"Joy Zimmerman's "To the Girl" has a heart, to paraphrase the title of one of her songs, as big and wide as the sky. The music here is vivid and alive, tender and poignant, and altogether a gift for the listener." Caryn Mirriam Goldberg, former Kansas Poet Laureate 

 "I've been on the road....and listening to Joy Zimmerman's very cool music from her latest CD, To the Girl! The production is SO smooth and well suited for her voice and songs. A couple of standouts: Why Be Normal has a "world music" feel to it and a super cool vibe. What Next could be a calling card song! Both set the table for another dimension for Joy as a writer/performer. Truly, they make me want to know "what's next" from JZ." 
David G Smith, Nashville singer|songwriter, First Place Winner 2008 International Song Contest 

"Joy Zimmerman – To the Girl is For all of us. Joy Zimmerman has been a prolific singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist touring and recording for the past 10 years.  To the Girl is Joy’s sixth album in that time and her most eclectic and engaging yet.  Recorded at Weights and Measures in Kansas City and co-produced with her lead guitarist Jimmy Dykes, To the Girl is a must listen.  Not just once but over and over again. To the Girl by Joy Zimmerman is a powerful musical experience for us all." 
Kathy Forste, Music Director KC Café Radio

Say My Name, the latest album by indie singer~songwriter Joy Zimmerman, weaves compelling vocals, rich instrumentation, and inventive songwriting. Its songs tell of gratitude, regret, hope and survival. The title track is a tribute to Camille Claudel, a 19th century French sculptor whose genius was silenced when she was committed to a mental institution. In other chapters, a typewriter delivers a break-up letter, jazz emboldens a profession of love, and a sweet bird assures the waking world. Lose—or find—yourself within these diverse tales.

Co-produced by Joy Zimmerman and guitar wizard Jimmy Dykes, Say My Name was skillfully recorded, mixed, and mastered by Duane Trower at Weights and Measures Soundlab in Kansas City. James Albright, Rod Lincoln, Gary Helm, Everett Freeman, Jr., Christine Broxterman, Ray DeMarchi, Ryan Dugan, Cindy Egger, and Joe Miquelon also contributed stellar tracks.

Grey Matter, an eclectic album by singer/songwriter Joy Zimmerman, travels from a life-changing choice to a profession of love to a firefly escaping a jar and a lamppost keeping our secrets….and much more in between.

Eight of the songs were produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by Fett at Azalea Studios in Nashville, along with one song produced and recorded at Marty Rifkin Productions in Los Angeles. Numerous gifted musicians in Nashville, Los Angeles and Kansas City contributed to this record.

Grey matter: 1. the greyish tissue of brain and spinal cord 2. the stuff of life that does not fit into distinct boxes

Welcome to an album recorded after my brain hemorrhage, after my hair had started to turn grey, and after I had lived long enough to know many grey layers. Lots of Grey Matter indeed.
