EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: Ivana XL - The King
All Ivana XL requires is a guitar and maybe a little whiskey. Her lyrics are paced slowly over lazy guitar strokes, abiding by folk traditions but with a street-smart Millennial edge ("So F*ck having babies and rocking them to sleep). There's a tinge of melancholy drizzled over it all and her tone is lackadaisically bluesy - like she's preaching to the choir and she knows it.
PS She's a Brooklyn girl so watch out for her on those Greenpoint and Williamsburg watering holes.
