San Francisco's Von Iva comprises vocalist Jillian Iva, bassist <a href="spotify:artist:32uwafNi2EgNm2khSOvGi7">Elizabeth Davis</a>, organist/keyboardist Becky Kupersmith, and drummer Kelly Harris. Prior to forming Von Iva, <a href="spotify:artist:32uwafNi2EgNm2khSOvGi7">Davis</a> spent seven years recording and touring with the riot grrrl band <a href="spotify:artist:535KSdsDbNGj6w6eCBkRP5">7 Year Bitch</a>. She and Harris also performed with the sci-fi rock outfit <a href="spotify:artist:3MM7eRp6IhlXTio7W5Wkdw">Clone</a> for a short time, releasing one album, Not Feeling Quite Like Yourself Today?, in 1998. Five years later, <a href="spotify:artist:32uwafNi2EgNm2khSOvGi7">Davis</a> was hungry to start another group. Iva was performing with her boyfriend's band in a Bay Area club in early 2003 when <a href="spotify:artist:32uwafNi2EgNm2khSOvGi7">Davis</a> spotted the young vocalist. Within weeks, Iva left her boyfriend and old band behind to join <a href="spotify:artist:32uwafNi2EgNm2khSOvGi7">Davis</a>, Kupersmith, and Harris. They borrowed Iva's great-grandmother's forename and introduced their soul-influenced disco-rock to San Francisco by the end of the year. Shows with <a href="spotify:artist:3LTXHU3DhiYzGIgF2PP8Q8">the Raveonettes</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4QJlZPeq8fGahP4v3xmu5q">I Am Spoonbender</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6pRMOXwTDqMhAmtFNQR12b">the Hiss</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:1rCIEwPp5OnXW0ornlSsRl">Metric</a> followed. Von Iva's self-titled debut EP arrived in early spring 2005. In May 2006, the band announced the departure of founding member <a href="spotify:artist:32uwafNi2EgNm2khSOvGi7">Elizabeth Davis</a>, who left the group to focus on motherhood. Iva and Harris formed the side project, JK Fab. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
