Ivy Prepping Traces of You

You likely already heard about Ivy prepping their new album, Traces of You, but I’m a little slow to the game, so I wanted to make sure I gave it the proper love. It’s a fairly subtle tune, with the smokiness of the vocals getting the majority of the focus. But, don’t ignore all the arrangement and nuance in the tune; I like how there’s an acoustic guitar that gets picked up midway through, adding just a touch more texture to the whimsical groove. All that said, the vocal work’s layering also adds texture, like in the latter half where the refrain of “say you won’t” kind of hangs in behind the front, to a mesmerizing effect. Traces of You drops this September via Bar None.
