SXSW 2014: Vance Joy

Vance Joy is the moniker of James Keogh, a law school graduate from Melbourne, Australia that decided to pursue a music career instead. This song exploded on the Hype Machine and went triple platinum in Australia.  He's signed a five-album deal with Atlantic Records so expect lots of radio airplay and hype at SXSW.

This reminds me a little of the Shins mixed in with Ed Sheeran.  Prediction: like Sheeran before him, he'll be playing this at the Grammys next year.
