Biography

Vance Joy, born James Keogh, is an Australian indie folk singer/songwriter who began his music career in the late 2000s while studying law. Influenced by Bon Iver, he gained recognition in the Melbourne open-mic scene and decided to pursue music full-time. Taking on the stage name Vance Joy from a character in Peter Carey's novel Bliss, he released his debut EP God Loves You When You're Dancing, which included the popular single "Riptide." This led to a record deal with Atlantic Records, and his debut album Dream Your Life Away was released in September 2014, featuring hits like "Mess is Mine" and "Fire and the Flood."

In February 2018, Vance Joy released his second album, Nation of Two, which included singles such as "Lay It On Me" and "Saturday Sun." In 2021, he released the track "Missing Piece," which achieved x2 Platinum status in Australia and is part of his 2022 album, In Our Own Sweet Time. Vance Joy continues to tour internationally and build on his success in the indie folk music scene.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
