We were instantly impressed by iVANA: boasting an infectious, euphoric sound, the Pennsylvania-based talent has recently unveiled her latest effort, the stunning and eclectic gem ‘lovely to meet you’. Reminding us of modern indie heroes such as Beabadobee, the track has this very exciting, slightly saturated indie-rock contour, providing the perfect framework for iVANA’s intense and relatable vocals.
Describing Santigold and Lykke Li as her primary inspiration, it is clear that the American newcomer doesn’t restrict herself to a specific box. Rather, she explores the full extent of the modern musical landscape, crafting an authentic and fresh outlook on her personal material. ‘lovely to meet you’ is the strongest evidence of that, a track that feels as pop as it is leftfield, potentially appealing to a wide audience.
Lyrically, ‘lovely to meet you’ is an ode to all of the temporary people iVANA has met in this life.
