Apart from Albert, The New Minstrels also produced many other outstanding Filipino musical artists.
Albert, also collaborated with other well-known artists such as The Apo Hiking Society, Jose Mari Chan, The Company, El DeBarge, Mike Francis, Fritz Infante, Julio Iglesias, Dennis Lambert, Raymond Lauchengco, Babsie Molina, Douglas Nierras, Basil Valdez, Eugene Villaluz and Nonoy Zuñiga.
She has performed in Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, the United States, and in various cities across Europe and the Middle East.
As a multi-awarded singer, her discography boasts more than 20 studio albums.
An alumna of St. Theresa's College Manila and Assumption College San Lorenzo, she began her professional singing career in 1981.
In 1982, she was proclaimed winner of the Dream Girl Filipina contest on The Party, a television program hosted by Ariel Ureta over the now-defunct Banahaw Broadcasting Corporation (now known today as A2Z 11 & formerly known as ABS-CBN 2).
As a solo performer, Albert signed up initially with OctoArts International (now PolyEast Records) in 1984.
Her first single, Gerry Paraiso's "Over and Over" (recorded January 1984), enjoyed tremendous airplay in local and national radio stations.
OctoArts International released Louie Ocampo and Allan Ayque's "Tell Me", for which she received a Gold Record Award from the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI).
Albert is also the first Filipino artist to record on CD.
Albert completed five more albums for OctoArts International: Touch of Love (1984), Expressions (1985), Joey (1986), Maligayang Pasko (1987) and Mixed Emotions (1989).
These albums produced many hits, including Louie Ocampo–Freddie Santos collaborations like "Memories" (recorded January 1984), "Points of View" (duet with Pops Fernandez, recorded January 1984) and "Yakapin Mo Ako" (recorded November 1985).
Subsequently, Albert received the Best Female Vocalist trophy during the 1985 Cecil Awards, the Philippine music industry awards during the 1980s.
"Tell Me" established Albert as a major Filipino musical artist.
Apart from "Over and Over" and "Tell Me", Albert's first album (Joey Albert) produced another hit, Robert More's "A Million Miles Away".
Cris Kuizon's "Say You're Mine", on the other hand, foreshadowed a resurgence of the acoustic in Philippine popular music.
Other hits included Jose Mari Chan's "I Remember the Boy" (recorded November 1985), Louie Ocampo and Jim Millbower's "Without You" (recorded November 1986), Louie Ocampo and Joey Albert's "Ikaw Lang ang Mamahalin" (recorded November 1986), Ray-Ann Fuentes's "Porma ng Porma" (recorded September 1988), Tony Perez and Allan Ayque's "Back in My Arms" (recorded September 1988), Louie Ocampo, Joey Albert and Janice de Belen's "It's Over Now" (recorded November 1985), Louie Ocampo and Joey Albert's "You Threw It All Away" (recorded November 1986) and Sunny Ilacad and Joey Albert's "Na Sabihin Mo" (recorded November 1985).
Albert moved to Dyna Records in 1990.

At the 1990 Awit Awards telecast, she received twin nominations as Best Female Vocalist of the Year for "Only a Mem'ry" and "Iisa Pa Lamang".
She won for "Only a mem'ry".
From 1991 to 1994, Albert became the host and executive producer of Bahay Kalinga, an award-winning public service outreach program at ABS-CBN.
Albert's homecoming shows in the Philippines are eagerly awaited by her fans.
Joey Albert... Once More, her sell-out concert at the Music Museum on August 10 and 11, 2001, featured singer-composer Jeffrey Hidalgo with Gerard Salonga as musical director.
During a press conference preceding the concert, esteemed movie critic and Malaya Sunday Magazine editor Mario Hernando pointed out that Albert holds the distinction of having released the first CD, a compilation of her greatest hits, in the Philippines.
Though she liked all of the songs included in the album, Albert picked "Forevermore" as her personal favorite largely because the material was originally done by Side A, the same band that re-introduced Albert's "Tell Me" to local charts back in 2001.
In 2007, Albert recorded a new version of "Tell Me" as theme song of Star Cinema's "A Love Story", a romance-drama about infidelity starring Filipino actors Aga Muhlach, Maricel Soriano and Angelica Panganiban.
Albert's new version re-introduced her body of works to a new generation of Filipinos.
In 2009, Albert and Basil Valdez were headline performers in "Incomparable", as part of a series of concerts organized by Viva Concerts & Events featuring iconic Original Pilipino Music (OPM) artists at the Skydome in SM City North EDSA (Quezon City).
In 2010, Albert released "Songs of the Heart", made up of original Filipino compositions carefully chosen by producer Eugene Villaluz for Viva Records.
The album contained some of Albert's personal favorites, as well as hits that came out after she left the Philippines.
The songs in the album were originally popularized by Side A ("Forevermore"), South Border ("Kahit Kailan"), Christian Bautista ("The Way You Look at Me"), The Company ("Muntik Na Kitang Minahal"), Anna Fegi ("Saan Ka Na Kaya Ngayon"), and Bituin Escalante ("Kung Ako Na Lang Sana"), among others.
In 2012, Albert has performed in highly successful Philippine reunion concerts featuring all-star members of the defunct groups Circus Band and The New Minstrels.
In 2018, critic Ruel Mendoza cited Albert's rendition of "Kumukutikutitap" (1987) as one of ten most enduring Christmas songs in the Philippines.
The song was composed by National Artist for Music Ryan Cayabyab and written by veteran film director and screenwriter Jose Javier Reyes.
During the 2019 Aliw Awards, Albert was declared Best foreign-based Filipino performer.
