THIS IS IVY LEAGUE self-titled debut available today!

In 2006, duo formerly named IVY LEAGUE released an EP SINGLE for their POP gem "London Bridges."  It received much praise from indie critics all over:

"the Brooklyn-based duo fit neatly between recent cozy-pop faves the Whitest Boy Alive and Peter, Bjorn & John, working the same seam of  homely beauty and prematurely autumnal sentimentality."

- PITCHFORK MEDIA

"This band is like the badass guy in high school that gets away with misbehaving all the time because he's like totally hot."

- VICE MAGAZINE

"Their voices are hushed and sweet, twining around each other in blissful harmony. The guitars are mainly acoustic and gentle, the drums and keys tasteful and carefully arranged."

- ALL MUSIC GUIDE

"Wow, I can see a lot of folks going nuts for this folky pop duo when they finally get a record out especially for "London Bridges", which is just breathtaking! Reference points include Simon & Garfunkel, Camera Obscura and Blueboy"

- INDIE PAGES

Two years later, now known as THIS IS IVY LEAGUE they have released their debut full-length today.  Recorded between their two Brooklyn apartments, they completely captured that "wall of sound."  Don't miss out on one of the best pop records of 2008!
