Ivan has made quite an impression on live music fans in his adopted city of Cardiff in recent months, gaining attention from BBC Radio Wales DJs and Radio 6 new music champion Tom Robinson along the way. The Mine Canary EP captures the world weary ache that flows through Ivan’s songs, delivered with a trademark vocal tenderness that demonstrates an intriguing maturity and intelligence of a young man finding his own way in the world. The 5 tracks showcase a mouth watering talent, at home in gentle textures and thought provoking lyrics.
