The stateside dates of the Nation of Two World Tour will get underwayApril 13th at Berkeley, CA's world-renowned Greek Theatre and continue into the summer (tour itinerary attached).

This Sunday, April 15th, Vance Joy will return to Coachella for a second time to perform at 4:45pm on the Coachella stage. This year's performance will follow his momentous 2015 Coachella debut where the "Mojave tent was overflowing" and he "wowed the crowd." The multi-Platinum singer-songwriter will continue to perform at several high-profile festivals throughout 2018, including Shaky Knees, Firefly and more.

Nation of Two has not only proven a sales and streaming success, but the sophomore album has earned widespread critical applause around the world. "Keogh has crafted a confident follow-up in Nation of Two that signals a promising career ahead," raved USA Today. "The Australian singer-songwriter has gone deeper and broader," added Newsday, "making singalongs that sound even bigger, ready for the stadiums he played as (Taylor) Swift's opener." Entertainment Weekly continues, "Joy focused on crafting piercing vignettes of young love and emotional restlessness --- and the results absolutely thrill." "It all adds up to an appealing album from an artist with a promising future," wrote Associated Press. "This is (Vance Joy's) time to really shine - and he seizes it."
