(ADAM + IVA)

ADAM + IVA make woke music comedy for a broke world. Think Portlandia and Nichols and May. The duo met in music theory class their freshman year at Princeton. IVA went on to become a crossover pop and opera star in Sweden and has acted and sung in sketches on Late Night with Conan O’Brien. ADAM performed at Chicago’s Improv Olympic Theater before moving to Nashville and playing in the bands of Kacey Musgraves and John Oates. ADAM + IVA’s music videos—including “Make America the Beautiful Again,” “Quarantine” (a parody of the Beatles “Yesterday”) and “Vegan Leather”—turn a wry, satirical eye on social convention and have developed a cult following on YouTube.
