Seattle’s folk group Ivan and Alyosha have had a hell of 2011 so far. They’ve released Fathers Be Kind, earned all sorts of critical acclaim (Filter, NPR, Brooklyn Vegan), dropped by KEXP, Daytrotter and IFC and been on what’s seemed like a non-stop tour. They’re not stopping any time soon either. I & A have announced more tour dates, (listed below). Additionally, they’ve released new material from their upcoming album. You can pick up “I Don’t Wanna Die Anymore” from Paste right here. And check out a peak of “God or Man” from a live KEXP Session in the video below. You can read an interview we did with them this spring here.
