God Loves You When You're Dancing, the debut EP from the Australian singer-songwriter Vance Joy, came out in Australia through Liberation Music on March 22, 2013. Vance Joy is James Keogh, a former Australian rules footballer, and he signed with Atlantic that same year.

The star is "Riptide", a breezy, strummed pop ditty with a hook that sticks like wet sand, sung in a high, easygoing voice that sounds like it came from a beach bonfire. In May 2015 it became the longest-charting song in the history of the Australian chart, and "Play with Fire" rode in its slipstream. The EP was nominated for two ARIA Awards in 2013. His first full album, Dream Your Life Away, followed.
