“Don’t Fade” was produced by hitmaking duo Take a Day Trip (Lil Nas X, Kid Cudi, Juice Wrld, James Blake), Dirty Projectors’ Dave Longstreth (Solange), and long time collaborators Dave Bassett & Edwin White (Lay It On Me, Saturday Sun). The track arrived last month marking a new sonic territory for the Australian artist.

“Don’t Fade” followed the worldwide success of last year’s “Missing Piece.” Co-written with GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter Joel Little (Taylor Swift, Khalid, Lorde), the irresistibly infectious track proved a sensation following its world premiere on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy.
The track ascended to #2 at Alternative Radio, earning more than 130 million global streams and bringing Joy’s catalogue up to over 5 billion streams worldwide, as well as a massive 3 billion TikTok views (with 2.6 million user-created videos). Last year also saw Vance Joy team up with superstar producers Benny Blanco and Marshmello for the hit single, “You.”
Having previously lit up stages around the world with a string of sold-out headline tours, special guest slots on stadium runs with Taylor Swift and P!nk, and marquee festival appearances at Coachella, Firefly and Austin City Limits, Joy recently announced a highly-anticipated return to North America set for Spring 2022. The run of select live dates kicks off May 14 at Beachlife Festival in Redondo Beach and will include sold-out headline performances at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium (June 2) and New York’s Pier 17 (June 4).
