About

You don't sell over two million copies of your debut album without some serious hard work, and Australian singer/songwriter Vance Joy has never been shy of major elbow grease. When Vance Joy first cut his teeth performing at open mic nights in Melbourne, he was feeding on a diet of artists like The Pogues and Paul Kelly. By 2013 he was ready to introduce the world to his ukulele-led charm 'Riptide', which became an instant global classic. The connection and journey his music was about to have on the world in years to come was an unexpected reward to the young songwriter.

Vance Joy (born James Keogh) consolidated on that first impression with further anthems 'Mess is Mine', 'Georgia' and 'Fire and the Flood'. Those hits all found a home on the 2014's debut 'dream your life away'. Vance Joy spent 2013 and 2014 playing clubs around the world before the album was released which then saw him surface everywhere from singing on the American Idol Season Final to being handpicked to open Taylor Swift's 1989 World Tour, festivals from Lollapalooza in Chicago and South America, to Coachella, Splendour in the Grass and the AFL Grand Final. After his successful Sold Out 2016 'Fire and The Flood' North American theatre run, and Australian performances at the Sydney Opera House, Margaret Court Arena and Riverstage he took a well-earned rest.

Come July 2017 - Vance Joy kicked off the campaign for his sophomore album 'Nation of Two' with the lead single 'Lay It On Me' showing it was destined to be another successful album. The track was followed six months later with the album and follow up single 'Saturday Sun', a tune so good that he held up delivering Nation of Two to ensure it made the cut.

The success of 'Nation of Two' saw Vance Joy tour the world throughout 2018 on the 'Nation of Two World Tour' ranging in venues from Arena's across Canada, amphitheatres in North America including the famous Red Rocks, the first Latin American headline shows, theatres across Europe and Arena's across Australia including two sold-out hometown shows at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena. November 2018, the end of the 83 date World Tour, Vance Joy had yet another offer to tour with one of the world's biggest female artists. P!NK extended an offer for Vance Joy to join her European stadium run on her Beautiful Trauma World Tour. Summer 2019 saw Vance Joy and band join her biggest tour to date and enjoy an extensive run of Stadium shows across Europe before taking another well-earned break to work on album number three.

In 2021 Vance Joy returned with 'Missing Piece', the song soon hit x2 Platinum in Australia, #1 at USA Triple A Radio, #2 on the Australian Radio Chart, #2 at the USA and Canada Alternative Radio Chart and won Best Video at the ARIA Awards. Released in June 2022, 'In Our Own Sweet Time', the third album by Vance Joy featured hit single, 'Clarity' which peaked at #3 on the USA Alt Radio Charts. The song spent one week at #1, nine weeks in the Top 5 and eleven weeks in the Top 10 on the Triple A Radio Charts in the US. In Australia, Vance Joy received 5 ARIA Nominations after the album's release including, Best Solo Artist, Best Adult Contemporary Artist, Best Pop Release for Clarity, Song of the Year for Clarity and Best Video for Every Side of You. Winning Best Video for the 2nd year in a row.

With 5 billion streams across all platforms, it's no surprise that listeners all over the world connect to Vance Joys intimate yet anthemic song writing. His lyrics take you on a journey that will reach out and hold you for a delicate moment. Bringing together a unique, charming mix of folk music with pop influences, these songs capture the familiar pulse of everyday experiences in a unique and celebratory manner.

    Vance Joy is amazing

    by Christine64 on 2016-02-03Metropolis - Montreal

    Vance Joy is an amazing folk singer-songwriter. Handsome, great stature, devastating smile, he brings you in a beautiful dream with every songs he sings. With his flexible voice that permits him to go in high notes, he just sings with a remarkable ease. He's full of emotions and can make us smile or cry without even knowing it. Love the show but it was to short.

    This was a great show and the venue was lovely - seats were perfect. Vance is young and enthusiastic. His voice sounded great. The surprise You Can Call Me Al cover at the end was a treat.

    Vance Joy in MTL

    by KayBee16 on 2016-02-01Metropolis - Montreal

    The voice is amazing. Not long enough, he would need to jam a bit his songs. The cover of Paul Simon was amazing ! The musicians should be closer of the signer. Great show !

    Opening band Reuben and the Dark were pretty good, a bit mellow. Vance Joy opened with Mess is Mine and the crowd went wild. Without giving away too much, he did a hilarious cover/mash up that had everyone on their feet. Awesome night, just too short.

    Vance Joy Fire & Flood Tour

    by outdooradventurer on 2016-01-23Orpheum Theatre - Vancouver

    Concert was great. Just wish it lasted longer. I have to write more apparently. He was very personal but wanted a longer set. Great music

    Great Concert But Loud

    by DiscerningTaste on 2016-01-21Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    Overall, Vance Joy and Reuben & The Dark put on a great show. My only complaint would have to be the volume of the music - it was far too loud. The other 5 people I know, who also attended this concert, felt the same way. The Jubilee is acoustically, much better than a stadium and the volume didn't need to be so high.

    Super fun!

    by Smile22 on 2016-01-21Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Edmonton

    My brother and I had an absolute blast! The Jube was the most perfect place to see him and he played old and new songs.. really got you grooving at times! I would see him again in a heartbeat!

    Outstanding!

    by Tashika on 2016-01-20Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    This performance was incredible. Absolutely Unforgettable. He is such an amazing performer live. His vocals are amazing and sound even better live than on his album. For me an incredibly important part of a show is if the performer can actually sing live and Vance Joy definitely can. I love his music and some of the songs I wasn't sure about on his album he sold me on them live. He's a great musician, I originally saw him open for Taylor Swift and right then and there I was sold on buying tickets for the tour I inevitably knew he would be having and I cannot wait for his next tour as I will 100% be going. The venue was also really nice.

    Vance was ok

    by AnaBanana136 on 2016-01-20Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    Although I was late, I managed to catch the last two songs by Rueben and the Dark. I enjoyed them more than Vance Joy. I would go see them again.

    VANCE JOY!!!!

    by hulksmash on 2016-01-19Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Edmonton

    I thought the concert was incredible. We had decent seats and the opening band was great as well. I bought their CD at the intermission. Although in the beginning of the Vance Joy performance there was audio problems after they were fixed you completely forgot they even happened. They light was was really creative. Although the seats we were in the lights were often right in your eyes. All in all Vance Joy was incredible and the live band feel really made the show pop :) I would see him again in a heat beat :) Such talent :)

    Incredible

    by JacqW on 2016-01-18Orpheum Theatre - Vancouver

    Vance Joy & the opening band, Reuben & and the dark, were amazing. The artists matched the venue very nicely and it was an extremely fun concert, but it was also very serene at other times. Quite the experience!

    Pure Joy

    by JJanetka on 2016-01-17Orpheum Theatre - Vancouver

    I've been waiting to see Vance Joy for a while and he didn't disappoint. He was genuine, funny and above all a great musician. I felt he was truly inspired by the audience and he sang a Paul Simon tune, what's not to love! Thank you Vance, come back soon!

    Vance and friends?

    by Dekkme on 2016-01-17Kelowna Community Theatre - Kelowna

    Understood that Vance sees himself as a singer songwriter but would it hurt to at least have some lights on the band. Couldn't even hear the horns over Vance and his guitar. That said, he is a good songwriter and this was a great venue and great value for the ticket price.

    Excellent performance

    by tigerkitten on 2015-09-10Rexall Place - Edmonton

    I had the privilege of seeing and hearing Vance Joy perform three times in summer 2015 - once at Calgary Stampede and twice opening for Taylor Swift in Edmonton. I look forward to more of Vance Joy aka James Keogh in the future. The songs are well written and unique in a blend of folk and alternative rock. Songs listeners would be familiar with include Riptide and his new hit Fire and the Flood.

    Brilliant

    by Polina on 2014-03-23Kool Haus - Toronto

    They were an opening band for a concert I went to and I honestly just bought tickets to see them. Their songs are beautiful and just warmed my heart and they sounded better live! They were so professional and very humble, taken aback by the crowds appreciation of their music. The lead singer has an unreal, amazing, and very unique voice. Definitely worth seeing!
