A Few Nice Things People Have Said About Joyce Katzberg:

"Joyce Katzberg is a jewel of a singer, who both moves your heart and enriches you mind." Howard Zinn - Historian and author of "A People's History of the United States "

"There are few singers in folk music who have the vocal ability that Joyce seems to be blessed with." Dick Pleasants -former host of the Folk Heritage on WGBH Boston Public Radio

"I'm an agnostic but Joyce's singing makes me want to shout, 'Amen!.'" Bob Blue - Composer/Educator/Lyricist - Amherst, MA

"The lyrics to Joyce's song, 'If I Were God' taught me more in four minutes than I learned in four years at Harvard Divinity School." Fred Small - Songwriter during performance at Bull Run in Shirley, MA

"What makes Joyce so special is that she has never been a 'sunshine patriot' in the constant and often tedious struggle for social change.

Coalition for Consumer Justice
