Ivy Share Fragile People Video

After being away for over a decade, Ivy triumphantly announced their return last month. Today, there’s another single to share with you, and it illustrates the careful steps they took in the crafting of this assumed masterpiece; you can hear how they take a step by step approach, first a wash of keys, then percussion, then vocals…the bass opens it up with little guitar stabs jumping into further build on the textural touches. Their melodic touches throughout the tune ingrain the song in your subconscious, the way the best pop music does. It’s difficult to imagine what they had to go through to complete this record after the passing of Adam, but if this is the last official Ivy release, its a reminder of the group’s gifts since their formation in the early 90s. Traces of You is out September 5th via Bar/None Records.
