    "comment": "The original trio of IVY — Andy Chase, Dominique Durand, and Adam Schlesinger — formed in 1994. Together, they released five studio albums, with their final one being All Hours in 2011.\n\nSadly in 2020, Schlesinger died from complications due to the COVID-19 virus. In memoriam of their bandmate, the other two reunited in 2021 to release archived demos and rare footage in the form of a tribute video. The band then began their reissuing project, releasing older versions of their previous records.\n\nThe reissue project allowed Chase and Durand to discover previously unreleased demos and tapes left by Schlesinger in their Rhode Island Studio, per a press release. “The world thought IVY was gone after 2012, and for a time we did too,\" shared Chase. \"And after Adam’s death in 2020 it seemed certain... So Dominique and I are thrilled to give everyone a brand new IVY album, with our beloved Adam playing on every song!\"\n\nAll songs feature fragments recorded by Schlesinger during the IVY period. The band's keyboardist and backing guitarist Bruce Driscoll also joined to go through the archives, rework the old material, and bring the original trio back together on Traces Of You.\n\n\"You can imagine how terrible it's been to lose Adam,\" Chase added. \"The only silver lining is that we could breathe life into these songs that he contributed to and it was a great experience making this record happen.\" https://tinyurl.com/2v9ysv9z",
