- John Smith's Voyages -

"Sounds like David Bowie and Freddie Mercury had a love child," claimed one fan upon his first encounter with Jon Smith’s Voyages. A strange but bold statement, his analogy holds up. Many fans say the style of front man Jon Paul Smith’s songwriting is reminiscent of daring acts like Queen, Bowie, and even Broadway musicals. Yet Smith achieves his sound naturally with unique piano-based arrangements and an incredible vocal range to create a genre best described as “theatrical rock.”

Jon Smith’s Voyages entertained as a solo act for years as Smith struggled to assemble a band. In the meantime, he became his own backing band and played no less than 15 instruments on the debut album, Indeed (2016). Recreating the dynamics of the album finally became possible in 2018 when three radical musicians joined Smith on his voyages. With Smith on keys, vocals, and wind instruments, the live band is completed by Charlie Wanyo on guitar, Luke Blair on bass, Kevin Beerman on drums, vocals, and percussion, and Brendan Quinn on guitar, organ, and vocals.
This band brings their brand of theatrical rock to a whole new level!"

- IVA -

"IVA is a vocalist and songwriter with an ethereal quality to her powerful voice and a cinematic feel to her music. Her work is transporting, taking the listener into a world of imagery that evokes deep feelings of inspiration, longing, and peace. Early on she signed her original music with Universal Sweden, performing on national TV and radio while making her debut at the Swedish  Royal Opera. Now IVA is the youngest laureate of the Vasa Order’s Swedish American of the Year award.  She’s been tapped “Who’s Next” by M Musicians Magazine, “supremely talented” by Guitar World’s Acoustic Nation, and featured in Billboard. She’s releasing her new record “Nobody’s Woman” this year after making a breakthrough with “Run” on Spotify and AAA radio. The new record is evocative of Weyes Blood and Margo Price ... with a little Aimee Mann sprinkled in. She lives between Brooklyn and outside of Philadelphia, where she leads her band."
