Last week, Vance Joy kicked off a major North American headline tour, featuring headline dates and further festival appearances, which will pave the way for Joy’s turn as main support on Taylor Swift’s “The 1989 World Tour.” Those shows begin May 20th at Bossier City, Louisiana’s CenturyLink Center and then continue through a triumphant return to Vance Joy’s native Australia, set for November 28th at Sydney’s ANZ Stadium (see attached itinerary). For complete details and ticket information, please visit www.vancejoy.com.
“Riptide,” Vance Joy’s debut North American single, recently received 2x platinum certification from the RIAA and remains a chart-conquering multi-format smash with top 20 airplay at Top 40 radio outlets nationwide. Currently among the top 40 on Billboard’s “Hot 100,” the track previously spent 5 weeks as the #1 song at Alternative outlets across the country. What’s more, the “Riptide” companion video has now surpassed 62 million individual views at http://youtu.be/uJ_1HMAGb4k.
“Mess Is Mine,” the second hit single from dream your life away, is shaping up as another multi-format success. The track – which has more than 35 million streams on Spotify – is currently ascending the top 15 at Alternative outlets nationwide, with its companion video drawing more than 4 million views thus far at www.youtube.com/watch?v=1C816p-KTNk.
As if all that weren’t enough, Joy recently debuted his latest single/video, “Georgia,” via Rolling Stone (www.rollingstone.com/music/premieres/watch-vance-joys-war-themed-georgia-video-with-a-surprising-twist-20150326).
