This is the discography of American singer Bethany Joy Lenz, documenting her albums, singles and music videos. Lenz released her first album at the age of 21, after her exit from the soap Guiding Light. She then experienced success with her second album produced by her friend Jeff Cohen and sold during the OTH tour in which she performed with some co-stars from One Tree Hill. Her third album, produced by Ron Aniello, never came to life due to changes behind the label Epic Records. She then teamed up with her friend Amber Sweeney to create the duet Everly in 2008. After three albums and four years of collaboration, the band split. Soon after that, Lenz released her fourth solo album produced once again by her friend Ron Aniello, and sold during the "Rock the Schools" Concert. A year later Jeff Cohen produced her fifth solo album which was sold to attendees of the One Tree Hill Convention "From Wilmington to Paris" and later 500 autographed first edition copies of the CD were sold on Etsy. In 2015, she released a sneak peek EP of an upcoming album through Kickstarter but the hard copies promised to the backers were sent two years later and many never received it. The full album never came to life due to legal proceedings with the creator of the project. She then teamed up with artists Daniel Shyman & Doo Crowder to release two songs for Christmas 2015. And they went on tour during summer 2016 under the name of "Joy Lenz and the Fire pit Band". On December 16, 2020, she released her first solo Christmas EP entitled "Snow" produced by Mike Bundlie and released by Poets Road Records. On August 18, 2023, she dropped the single "Strawberries", released by Violet Tiger.
