History

Joie De Vivre formed in 2007. Since then, they have released two full-length albums, an EP, and several splits. The band temporarily broke up in 2011, during which time they finished their sophomore album, We're All Better Than This. Following completion of the album, the band reunited in 2012 and completed a tour of Europe in June / July 2012. Since 2012, they have released two splits, one with Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate) and Prawn. While still an active band since 2012, they've limited their activity to spot shows around the Midwest.
