Joyce Manor is an American indie rock band from Torrance, California, formed in 2008. The band consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Barry Johnson, guitarist Chase Knobbe, bassist and back-up vocalist Matt Ebert, and drummer Pat Ware. The idea for the name "Joyce Manor" was thought of by Lee Hartney. It came from the name of an apartment building by frontman Barry Johnson's house. Joyce Manor was originally a duo group consisting only of members Johnson and Knobbe, which they first thought of while drunk during a visit to Disneyland.
