IVY, briefly known as Ivy Wubs, is a Bristol based, drum and bass producer and Dj from Brittany, France. Her rise to underground prominence began when UKF named her one of their “Ones To Watch” in 2021. Her bootleg treasure trove caught the attention of acclaimed artists such as DJ Hybrid, Goddard, and BBC Radio 1’s Charlie Tee and Sarah Story. Early in 2023 she earned a prestigious mentorship from Hospital Records and received the honor of being named one of BBC Radio 1’s “Essential Artists for 2023.”

IVY’s affinity for European “core” music stems from her formative years in rural Brittany, where she frequented free parties and later immersed herself in the vibrant hardstyle raves of The Netherlands. Upon arriving in Bristol for university, her passion for Drum & Bass deepened, and she found inspiration in the city’s underground scene, with its playful, lighthearted charm, a stark contrast to the darker tones of European counterparts. Transitioning from a spectator to a performer, she honed her skills with a humble USB Numark mixer and gained the confidence to play in front of an audience, landing her first booking at the renowned Blue Mountain venue in Bristol—just before the pandemic hit.

She also runs a festival fashion brand called Jazzy Garms. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
