about

A seductive pop alchemy and the scratchy intensity of a unique vocal timbre, evoking the style of Marlene Dietrich, illuminate IVI's debut single, Andromeda.

25-year-old, born in Austria, IVI grew up in London. She’s a versatile artist capable of bringing together in the same song an inspired and contemporary mainstream attitude and the aristocratic echo of the most charming interpreter / femme fatale of the twentieth century.

"Music is the universal dictionary of emotions," says IVI. "Songs are like magic boxes made of sounds, colors and visions that stay with us forever".

The piece, written and produced by Ferdinando Arnò (musician, arranger and author of hundreds of tailor made songs for advertising campaigns) was mixed by Tom Elmhirst, the most creative sound engineer of the last decade and Grammy Awards winner for his work with Amy Winehouse, Adele, David Bowie and Beck.

lyrics

ANDROMEDA

More than every sun that sets
another thousand alphabets
the kind I never thought I’d find
A slice of paradise

Ooooh oh oh ooooh
Ooooh ooooh ooooh oh oh
Ooooh oh oh ooooh
Ooooh ooooh ooooh oh oh

Rather than
Andromeda
No tropical land
Will do

Either one
No Venus or Mars
No future land
Will do

Rather than
Andromeda
No tropical land
Will do

Even when
A better man
From promise land
Will come

The kind I never thought I’d find
My shortcut to the sky

Ooooh oh oh ooooh
Ooooh ooooh ooooh oh oh
Ooooh oh oh ooooh
Ooooh ooooh ooooh oh oh

Rather than Andromeda
No tropical land
Will do

Either one
No Venus or Mars
No future land
Will do

Rather than
Andromeda
No tropical land
Will do

Even when
A better man
From Vessel Land
Will come
