Australian singer-songwriter, Vance Joy has released his first new music in three years with the bright, joyous, feel-good anthem 'Missing Piece'.
Written virtually with Joel Little (Taylor Swift, Khalid, Lorde) during a COVID lockdown, Vance was inspired to create 'Missing Piece' after seeing people separated from their loved ones due to the pandemic."'Missing Piece' is a song about being separated from someone you love," Vance says.
"It can be tough but when what you have is good you know that these separations are just small stuff; you're both holding the line. It's about the stillness you find when you are together.
"I wrote it with Joel Little on a Zoom call. I'm a big fan of his great songwriting and production. I think we tapped into something that's relatable given so many people around the world have been separated recently due to restricted travel."
Given the subject matter of the song, Vance teamed with Melbourne-based director Annelise Hickey for a charming music video that sees Vance's better half going to extreme lengths to deliver his forgotten lunch.
'Missing Piece' is the first instalment of what's next for Vance Joy with more new music to come.
