With just two days left until the release of his debut album Dream Your Life Away, Vance Joy brings some extra cheer to fans today, announcing a run of tour dates for March next year. The tour will see Vance Joy travel with his band to major capital cities and regional locations nation-wide, performing material from the new LP.
All songs feature on his much anticipated debut album, out this Friday. Dream Your Life Away also includes lead track ‘Mess Is Mine’ – a Top 40 ARIA single – and bona-fide hit ‘Riptide’, which continues to see the Melbourne musician’s star rise internationally. ‘Riptide’ has spent the last four weeks atop the Alternative Radio Chart in the US ahead of acts like alt-J, The Black Keys and Coldplay, and last week reached its highest position yet on the Billboard Hot 100 at #61. Globally the song remains Top 40 in the UK (Silver), Canada (Gold), Germany (Gold), Ireland (Gold) and Sweden (platinum), with over 1.5 million sales worldwide and 87 million streams on Spotify.
Following the release of Dream Your Life Away in Australia, the album will be released in the US, Canada, the UK and Europe, where anticipation is also escalating. The coming months will see Vance Joy tour these regions extensively. His run of UK dates is already sold out, with a second London show recently announced to keep up with demand.
