"Back to the Basics"

" Frontman Cory Dee played guitar and sang Celtic flavoured melodies while guitarist/ mandolinist Doc De Groot filled in the rest. It was excellent with lots of catchy rhythm and some excellent mandolin solos. " - L.A. Beat


"Eyes on Ivan in View"

"Side projects seem like an inevitable part of music—creativity ebbs and flows, visions change and sometimes ideas may not be right for one band, but are the ideal fit for another." - View Weekly Magazine


"Eyes on Ivan headed for Red Deer"

"Eyes on Ivan, an Edmonton folk band borne out of Maritime influences and the notion of following one’s heart..." - Red Deer Advocate

Bio

" Side projects seem like an inevitable part of musiccreativity ebbs and flows, visions change and sometimes ideas may not be right for one band, but are the ideal fit for another.

Such is the case with Eyes on Ivan, the latest endeavour from Cory Dee, who you may be familiar with from his banjo-picking/ keyboard playing with Albertan folk-rock group Owls by Nature. That band is still alive and well, but Dee had songs lingering that were in need of an outletOwls by Nature just wasn't it." -Meaghan Baxter/ Vue Weekly

Based out of Edmonton, Eyes On Ivan are a melody driven folk band that offers both heavy hearted ballads as well as foot stomping infectious melodies. It is through coming back to Cory Dee's maritime roots, and with the help of producer, Jay Sparrow, that Dee was able to gain a clear vision of what Eyes On Ivan would be: heartfelt, simple and pure, music for the sake of music. In essence, it would fast become a lesson in the pursuit of happiness and following the true passions of ones heart.
