Dave Norris & Local Ivan: Review & Video

Photo by Ming Wu

Catchy sounds and catchy riffs, you can’t ask for much more as a music listener. Dave Norris & Local Ivan have the right ingredients to make your ears grin. Simply, Dave Norris is Ottawa’s best kept secret that needs to be told. 

Dave’s voice reminds me of all the reasons why I love Mark Kozelek, but rather than leaving me in a midst of sullen emotions, I want more. The band has a really well-developed sound; it goes down smooth and comes out tender and cool. Personally, I think they would be the perfect fit to open for Wintersleep at Bluesfest;)

All together, what a great Ottawa band! Be sure to check them out. 





Thanks to Dave Norris & Local Ivan and the WildWorks Station for the videos.
