Vance Joy Tickets

Vance Joy shot to prominence with the breakthrough single Riptide and he has just carried on from there. The track came out in 2014 and made him a star overnight. Joy’s star has been on the rise ever since and with the kind of music he is coming out with, there is no limit to the heights he can reach.

Interestingly enough, there came a time in his life when he almost became a football player. He was a more than decent player and while he was in love with music, his passion for football was quite strong too. In the end the pull of music was just too strong to resist and he became a musician. Now the Australian has a packed schedule to deal with this year. This is exactly how he likes it too. If you want to join him on the ride when he hits the road, then book your Vance Joy tickets at the earliest.

A Stunning Start

Vance Joy grew up in Melbourne, Australia and was a very good football player. He was represented the Coburg Football Club and managed to win the award for the best first year in 2008. He soon however gave up football and decided to focus on music. Joy came out with the single From Afar in January of 2013.

On March 22, 2013, Vance Joy released his first extended play titled “Gold Loves You When You’re Dancing.” The EP was nominated for ARIA Music Awards in two categories. The extended play contained the single Riptide that went on to become the longest charting song on ARIA Chart history. The track peaked at the sixth spot on the ARIA Singles Chart and went three times platinum in Australia.

Riptide climbed to the seventh spot on the US Adult Top 40, to the number one position on the US Alternative Songs and the US Rock Airplay charts both.
