Thriving Ivory – Review of their self-titled album
Music genre: Alternative/Pop
Band members:
- Scott Jason – Piano and Keys

Couple all this with the fact that the bandmembers are easy on the eyes – appealing to a late teens/early twenties demographic – and you have a band that will likely do very well.
