专辑《Thriving Ivory (Retail)》简介

Thriving Ivory's self-titled Wind-up Records debut makes at least one thing perfectly clear. This San Francisco Bay Area-based quintet, which formed a few years ago while in Santa Barbara with various members attending college in the area, is, first and foremost, a rock band, with songs that elicit an emotional reaction comparable to those of the wide-screen visions of U2 and Coldplay. Thriving Ivory's music touches on the haunting presence of ghosts and angels, as well as life, love, relationships and the universal search for meaning in these uncertain times....all couched in timeless melodies and evocative images. Fan favorites include the first single, "Angels on The Moon", the deeply personal "Alien" and surging ballads "Hey Lady" and "Overrated" while songs like "Day of Rain" and "Twilight" are also cinematic productions, using an impressive canvas that includes strings and a lush, seductive sonic atmosphere.

Thriving Ivory's Wind-up debut is proof that there is plenty more magic up the band's sleeve. After a few years of playing tiny clubs to, at times, 7 people (6 of them club employees) in order to hone their skills and attract the attention of a label, the band has found it's perfect match in Wind-up...a label that has the staff of a major and the mentality of an indie.
