Ivan & Alyosha began as a duo in 2007 with Tim Wilson and
Ryan Carbary. Their first EP The Verse, The Chorus sparked the
interest of NPR Music leading to a Song of the Day pick and a
2011 Tiny Desk Concert. The group’s forthcoming release
"Fathers Be Kind" was recorded in a converted barn in Snohomish,
45 minutes north of Seattle. Ivan & Alyosha have now expanded
to a four-piece including Wilson’s brother Pete and guitarist Tim
Kim. The band fits squarely into the Northwest adult-indie scene
that has spawned Blitzen Trapper and Band of Horses.
