Ivyrise
Line Up The Stars

MyMajorCompany UK

WE SAY

We've previously featured Ivyrise and noted their success as a DIY band, with BBC radio support and a strong live showing among their achievements. They now release Line Up The Stars on MyMajorCompany UK, a new model of record label that opened its doors in October last year. The band took just four days to raise the necessary £100,000 required to become MMC’s first fully-funded UK act. Musically, it continues in the same wide-screen accessible rock which has brought them this far. They have just finished a sell-out UK tour and had coverage on Sky News, NME.com (video exclusive), Artrocker and great regional support at press. They are currently finishing their album in Texas with producer Jason Perry (Kids in Glass Houses, The Blackout, McFly).
