About Joy Ride
Joy Ride was formed in 2022 by Nikki Shue and Chad MacDonald with a simple goal: create a high-energy cover band that brings great music, great musicians, and great people together.
Based in the local music scene, Joy Ride takes audiences on a musical road trip through the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, and today. Our repertoire blends timeless classics with modern hits, giving every audience something familiar to sing along and dance to.
What makes Joy Ride unique is our commitment to working with some of the best musicians in town. Our lineup brings together talented, experienced players who can step onto the stage and deliver the energy, chemistry, and musicianship that make every show memorable.
Whether you’re looking for nostalgic favorites, today’s biggest hits, or a little bit of everything, Joy Ride brings the soundtrack for a great time.
