A Joyful Noise is a live album by American gospel singing group The Drinkard Singers, released in the U.S. in 1958 on RCA Records. It is a live recording of gospel tunes performed by the family act which comprised Emily Drinkard (later known as Cissy Houston), her sisters Anne Moss, Lee Warrick (mother of Dionne Warwick and Dee Dee Warwick), and brothers Nickolas and Larry Drinkard and Marie Epps. Anne Drinkard left and was replaced by Lee's adopted daughter Judy Guions, who was later known as Judy Clay.
