Who is Joyce Vincent Wilson?

Joyce Vincent Wilson is an American singer, most famous for being one-third of the group Tony Orlando and Dawn. As an original member to the 1970s group, who later had their own successful television program, she was featured on hit singles like "He Don't Love You", "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree" and "Mornin' Beautiful". Wilson continues singing to this day, usually with her sister, Pamela Vincent.

Wilson was offered a chance to replace original Supremes member Mary Wilson in the Supremes, with members Scherrie Payne and Susaye Greene, before it was determined by Motown that the group should not continue without any original members. Wilson sang as a backing vocalist on Payne and Greene's duet album, Partners, in 1979, which was originally conceived as a Supremes album.

A friend of Payne, Wilson has also provided backing vocals during her solo concerts. In 2006, Wilson and her sister Pamela Vincent provided backing vocals at the twentieth anniversary concert of the Former Ladies of the Supremes. In January 2007, both Wilson and Vincent provided backing vocals for Payne at a concert in Los Angeles, California.
