The Jim Ivins Band brings a unique brand of acoustic driven pop rock that is accessible to all. Since their start in 2007, they have shared the stage with national acts such as Parachute, Mae, Carolina Liar, The Ataris, and Pat McGee Band, in addition to showcasing at the 2009 Miami Music Festival. After spending a year promoting their full-length album “99¢ Dreams,” they stepped back into the studio with Ace Enders of The Early November and producer Chris Badami to debut their newest EP, “Back To Reality”. The Jim Ivins Band is a Virginia-based radio-friendly acoustic pop band with honest lyrics that are sure to relate to every listener.
"In this age of Eurodisco radio domination, good, earnest rock bands have become an increasingly rare commodity. Richmond, VA’s Jim Ivins Band is set to combat the current wave of synthesizer-toting scenester acts with their melodious power chords and sensitive songwriting. The power-pop quartet certainly wears their collective heart on their sleeves, relying on heartfelt lyrics and emotive melodies to move their audience. “Back to Reality” is a guitar-laden anthem seamlessly blending Ivins’s confessional acoustic songcraft and the band’s ability to rock out, destined to soundtrack many teenagers’ first makeout sessions."
