Vance Joy:
You know those songs you love because they find the words you can’t. The songs that read your mind and your heart at the same time, and it becomes nearly impossible not to instantly be attached to them. Well, Vance Joy has the artistic ability to quench your musical palette with a song not only because it speaks to you but he makes you want to experience the words he sings. I can guarantee he made every young lady in the audience that summer night want to look like Michelle Pfeiffer, even though most of us don’t remember who is she.
Vance Joy recently came to Boston, and played a free show put on by Radio 92.9, Boston’s Alternative station. Copely square was transformed into a rockin’ music venue where the vibes were good, the music was free, and the artists delivered. The music brought to this New England city by a man from Australia is that of rich lyrical thought and a sound that filled an entire park with happy ears and feels.
Made famous by his “Riptide,” Vance, was able to capture the audience from the start. He played for over an hour all songs from his album Dream Your Life Away such as “Mess Is Mine,” “ Georgia,” and “From Afar.” If you asks he his song “ Georgia” made love songs seem cool again. Vance has a five-year record deal with Atlantic Records that is sure to make something more of him than just a one-hit-wonder, or at least I am truly hoping.
All I have to say is…thanks Vance, as if I already didn't want to quit my job “and head to New York City.”
