Ivan Hartle (Vancouver, BC) pivoted from a successful US college baseball career to becoming an established voice in the Canadian music scene. His bluesy, soul singer-songwriter sound is flush with melodic grooves and his timeless, warm vocals. Alongside Canadian tour dates and notable festival bookings like Rifflandia, Phillips Backyard, Vancouver Jazz, and NXNE, he’s opened for artists like Sam Henshaw, Jon and Roy, and Grammy Award-winning Cedric Burnside. Ivan’s catalogue, highlighted by his Clash Magazine praised album “A Place to Stay,” the soulful, summer groove “So Am I,” and his most recent blues-infused release “Told You So,” has received CBC and NPO Radio 2 airplay and over 14 million Spotify streams.
