Ivan Rivers

ALMOST FOUND OUT ABOUT YOU
new summer single • out now ☀️💀😎

A love song before the love, a journey moving through memories yet to be made, with fortune-telling coffee breaks, mystic visions with Chi Pig in East Van, and direct flights to Dunbar City, BC from the homewoods to the heart.

A sunshine-addled folk-pop-n-roller featuring Ivan Rivers and the Real Bleeders.
Recorded at 11 Quarry Court in the East End of the CN Tower City.
Produced, mixed, & engineered by Emmett O’Reilly. Mastered by Harry Hess.
