Joy Layne

Joy Layne (born Joy Lynne Nagl on November 11, 1941)[1] is an American former pop singer from Chicago, Illinois, United States, often compared[by whom?] to Sandy Duncan and with a style inspired in at least part by Teresa Brewer.[citation needed]

Layne signed to Mercury Records in 1956 after her mother arranged a meeting with Mercury A&R rep Art Talmadge.[2] Her debut single was a cover of The Poni-Tails' "Your Wild Heart", which became a hit in the U.S., peaking at No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 early in 1957.[3] Layne, who was 15 at the time, was attending Lyons Township High School in LaGrange, Illinois, a small-town western suburb of Chicago, when the single broke nationally.[2] The follow-up sides, "My Suspicious Heart" and "After School," done at the same session as the first record, failed to chart,[3] though "After School" became associated with her and was covered by Teresa Brewer, and her last recordings, produced by Lenny LaCour, were released in 1961.[2]
