James Norbert Ivanyi

James Norbert Ivanyi is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and independent solo artist hailing from Sydney, Australia. After completing his music degree he honed his abilities producing records and touring in a diverse range of artists and bands before focusing his attention on a solo instrumental career that officially launched in late 2013.

Since that time, he has released four critically acclaimed solo albums. ‘Aphasia’, ‘The Matter Circumvention’, ‘The Usurper’ and ‘Denalavis’ respectively, with the first full length since 2017 ‘Omen Faustum’ announced for October 20th, 2020.

His unique style of technical, modern progressive metal fused with the classic psychedelic rock sounds of the 1960’s & 70’s has seen his broad fan base transcend genres and generations.
