Ivy
is a New York City-based band that features former Parisian
Dominique Durand’s seductive vocals against a backdrop
of melodic rock sound that’s sometimes atmospheric
and ethereal, other times pop-centric and techno dance. A
few of the songs, like Tess Don’t Tell and I’ve
Got You Memorized conjure up the pop smarts and sensibilities
of Suzanne Vega at her best.
The
ten tracks here offer a varied range between light pop
synth and dark brooding shoegazer sounds. In the Clear
is the kind of album that immediately strikes a chord (literarily
and figuratively), and holds up well upon repeated listens.
Durand’s voice is irresistible, and the catchy tunes
on the album are sure to please long-time Ivy fans while
turning the band on to new listeners.
