Ex ‘Aussie Idol’ star goes global

Australian artist IVANA returns with her first global single release for the year with the dance infused “Burning” which is out now! The single is IVANA’s first release since recently signing with respected German based dance label “Place Called Home”.
Since arriving on the Australian music scene with unparalleled force last year after making the Final Top 5 on “Australian Idol”, 20-year-old IVANA quickly established her own independent identity, releasing a trio of successful singles. Kicking off with her debut “Ooh La La La”, which had major Australian Radio support and clocked over 200,000 streams. Follow-up single, “Beating Heart” matched the same impressive stats, she then ended 2024 with her biggest hit to date “, Liar Liar” which cracked over the 1.5 million streaming mark.
The results are beyond impressive for a new artist who is now in position to take over the world with her signature powerhouse vocals and dance infused pop beats, solidifying her position as one of Australia’s most exciting new talents. In celebration of dropping the new single “Burning” two exclusive single-launch shows are happening in Melbourne and Sydney. Details below:
