Ivey – Sounds of Oz

Mondays can be hard, but Ivey is here to lift you up with their new single “Bodies.” This song is all shimmery pop goodness, the kind of track that encourages you to take a spontaneous dance break. You know you deserve it!

“I wrote Bodies about both my own curiosities about love and sexuality and also a reflection on my good friends’ relationship,” explained lyricist Lachlan McGuffie. “I’ve always been curious about open relationships, bisexuality and what the meaning of love is and exploring that”

Ivey will play for home town fans at Elsewhere on the Gold Coast on September 13. I know it’s a long way away, but considering the band sold out their last show at The Foundry, I’d get tickets sooner rather than later!

The rain might have been relentless in many parts of the country of late, but Gold Coast five-piece Ivey are bringing the sunshine with their feelgood new single “Won’t Be.” Lifted from their recently released EP Gorgeous, it’s a catchy piece of indie pop brilliance with real summer vibes.

“This song actually began from an ableton loop our drummer Matt had created. Drawn to the lead synth riff you hear at the start of the song, we started to construct a song around it,” the band explained. “What was resulted from that is one our most collaborative songwriting effort to date, and our first exploration into electronic music. ‘Won’t Be’ became a kind of anthem for the whole EP, theming topics of lost love, animosity and clarity.”

Ivey have supported acts like Ocean Alley and Cub Sport, but they’re ready to step into the spotlight with shows celebrating their recent EP release. Hear “Won’t Be” and other tracks from Gorgeous at the following shows.
