About Ivan Rivers
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
My dad swinging me around in our living room in Clinton, Ontario to "Istanbul" by They Might Be Giants and the greatest hits of The Kinks. My parents loved music and it was always centred in the ole childhood home.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?
Bright Eyes, LIFTED or the Story Is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground
Damien Jurado, The Horizon Just Laughed
Justin Townes Earle, Nothing's Gonna Change the Way You Feel About Me Now
LIFTED bridged emo-era bloodletting with grandscale pastoral poetic ambition, a rural teen's dream. JTE brought nuance, beauty, and lushness to roots devastation. And Jurado's last decade of esoteric beauty is a touchstone in my adult life. Classics.

“The End With You”
This song rules 'cause it marries my penchant for lyrical specificity–references to Swearin', Calypso Triple Melon Lemonade, AEW Wrestler Orange Cassidy–with the rollickin country-rock rave-ups of my Real Bleeders Band. Zoom-in & wide-lens in tandem.
