Description
As the principal songwriters and creative forces, Andy Chase and Adam Schlesinger brought a Lennon/McCartney aspect to their songwriting. This is to say that Andy’s view is a little left of center while Adam leans a little more commercial and when combined with Dominique Durand's voice, it’s astounding.
The music of Ivy is the convergence of three very distinct voices… and personalities, but with a shared vision. Whether you call it “shoegazing” or “indie pop” or “indie” or whatever, the band’s entire catalog is pure pop perfection.
Despite their lack of commercial success here in the United States, for over 15 years, Ivy was one of the most licensed bands in the business.
You may not know their name, but you definitely know their music.
