Thriving Ivory Thrive Alive!
San Francisco Bay area quintet Thriving Ivory have been making significant noise in various areas of the country since the demo of their "Angels Of The Moon" was picked up by an area radio station early in their career and given a royal reception by local listeners.
Signed to Wind-up Records, the band--consisting of Scott Jason (piano & keys), Clayton Stroope (vocals), Drew Cribley (guitars), Bret Cohune (bass), and Paul Niedermier (drums)--has continuned to garner favor in several West Coast states.
Perhaps most notably, the band's been drawing raves in the Salt Lake City area, where local radio picked up on the "Angel Of The Moon" single and sales of the band's Wind-up debut have topped local charts.
Check out several tracks here from the band's recent live performance at Salt Lake City's Murray Theater, which drew over a thousand fans for their first appearance ever in the area. Do they rock? It would appear they do!
Get a new joke, will ya?
Anyhoo, thanks for posting this Martin!
They have since been one of my favorite bands and there's not a day that goes by that I don't listen to them. I can have their CD on repeat and it never gets old. It gets better. You find yourself loving it more than you thought you would....find yourself quoting the songs to your friends....it's crazy. I love them. I'm going to see them for the first time live in March and I am ECSTATIC about it! I can't wait. It's going to be amazing...from the way these videos sound...it will be amazing.
So, give them a chance Amy....if you like great lyrics and music that speaks those lyrics as well....then this band is for you. Definitely. I'm done now. haha
cancer, and if he doesn't beat it, i will play
this at funeral. this song makes you think.
On "Angels on the Moon" I love how Drew started out and it was your sold out show! I love it when Clayton you ask for the audience to sing with you! The lighting was perfect also. Clayton you are so natural on stage dear you amaze me every time!! Did you see everyone singing along with the guys in the audience? WOW..
Twilight: Great drumming Paul. Clayton once again you were born for that stage! I loved it, it's always great to see you live!
Hey Lady: Scott loved seeing you start playing on the keys! Did I see you smile? Clayton your voice is amazing on this one. It changes IN A GOOD WAY! You even had the guys singing and dancing in the front row! I loved how you were on one knee singing to the audience, though I think in time you'll need to be careful or they'll grab you and pull you down, only cause they loves ya!
ALL IN ALL...FREAKING AWESOME!..CYN!
I listen in awe because these men are awesome. I saw them on the Greg Kimmel show. I plan on seeing them in Little Rock. Their music is calming, healing, invirorating. What a wonderful paradox. Dianne in Arkansas
These guys are amazing. They attract the most loving kind of people. I have seen them live and all I can say is that your 13 year old would not see anything that would be bad on stage. They are so down to earth and sweet. No one is perfect, but I think these guys consider that they have young Fans. I do not know them personally but just knowing they had a sold out show in Utah is a dead give away! You will love them.GO GO GO is all I can say,Sami!
