“Elyse Aeryn can undoubtedly craft a banger... But with the Cape Breton, N.S., singer-songwriter's debut album, Joy State of Mind, it's just as satisfying to sit in the quiet moments”
“Joy State of Mind is a perfect introduction to an up-and-coming East Coast artist with a long career ahead of her. Elyse easily blends genres, creating a unique sound that is nostalgic, fresh, and relatable.”
“[Joy State of Mind] falls in between rock/adult-alternative/country, but as anyone who has seen Elyse perform with her band can tell you, Elyse Aeryn is a certified rock star”
— Martin Hickey, CIOE 97.5FM
