The Canadian singer, songwriter and
guitarist known as Rick Ivanoff has released his latest LP record,
“Rick Ivanoff – a Collection.” The self-titled record comprises
eight original tracks for an approximate total listening time of half
an hour. It has been proudly published on the Dog Star Music
independent record label without support from the corporate music
industry. Full of unstoppable hooks and widely varied pop
songwriting, “Rick Ivanoff – a Collection” is the definitive
Ivanoff music experience.
Rick Ivanoff cites as main artistic
influences such classic rock and pop groups as the Byrds, the Eagles,
Neil Young, Jackson Browne, Blue Rodeo, Poco, CSNY, Pure Prairie
League, Alison Krauss and Union Station, Garth Brooks, Dan Fogelberg,
Joni Mitchell, and Rob Thomas. As a natural result, Ivanoff's own
music is written with a surprisingly broad array of textures, styles
and tones. His new “Collection” LP showcases him in many such
forms, sometimes more rock, other times tinged with a hint of folk or
country, and occasionally founded on rolling piano accompaniment that
rings reminiscently of Billy Joel.
Speaking of the themes of his songs on
“Rick Ivanoff – a Collection,” he writes:
“My album contains songs that are
fun, serious and intelligent. They touch different subjects from UFOs
and aliens to finding love, losing love and not giving up on your
dreams.
“I believe that we all need to help
and nurture each other so that we can realize our own potential both
individually and as a whole. Even though we are all different, we are
all humans will feelings. We all came into the world the same way. We
all laugh, cry, hurt, rejoice, celebrate and love. Love is the
answer!”
Ivanoff is a veteran guitar player and
natural songwriting talent. He publishes original instrumental tracks
for various production music libraries, and his tracks are licensed
by music supervisors and producers on a regular basis. He has
performed live on “Breakfast Television” in Toronto and “Global
News at Noon,” a nationally broadcast program, and his official
music videos have been shown on CMT. His songs have been recorded by
both Canadian and United-States artists, and have been used in
television.
He has worked and recorded with such
music titans as Michael Fonfara (Foreigner, Electric Flag,
Rhinoceros), Joe Mavety (Maryanne Faithful, Joe Cocker), Rick Gratton
(Rough Trade, Ian Thomas), Joe Agnello (Cameo Blues Band, David
Wilcox), Tony Lester (Boys Brigade, Arson) and many others.
