Musical Monday with Ivy Levan

Ivy Levan in a scene from "Hot Damn'

Ivy Levan is an American singer/songwriter/actress/model. This is the second time we're spotlighting her exuberant, quirky, over-the-top blusey stylings... and this second song is joined with a video that's equal parts thrilling and funny. Just like the last time around.

"Hot Damn" was the second track on Levan's debut EP, "Introducing the Lady" . This video is either a sequel, or perhaps a prequel, to the one for "Money", as it clearly features some of the same characters.



If you enjoyed "Hot Damn", I think you'll find Gin Wigmore's music and videos appealing as well. (And you should keep an eye out here; Levan will almost certainly be returning to these parts on future Musical Mondays.)

Musical Monday with Ivy Levan

As a teenager, Ivy Levan moved with her parents from Arkansas to California where she soon began pursuing a career in the music industry. We're lucky that she did, because she has gifted the world with a powerful voice and a musical style that style can generally be described as exuberant, bluesy jazz, yet thoroughly modern. Her music is even more appealing, because the songs and their videos are full of  a dark sense of humor and dangerous fun.

But, enough talk. Here's "Money", which was the first track from Levan's 2013 debut EP, "Introducing the Dame". I hope it gets your Monday off to a good start... and that your week turns out better than it does for some of the characters in the video!
