About

Members: David Clegg, Bill Maltba, Zack

Bio: David Clegg and Bill Maltba combined forces in 2009 to create Ivan the Terribles. The band began as an absurdest pop rock project but have evolved to become a musical force; with manic bouts of musical and mental psychosis leading to one of the most original rock sounds in the Planet Universe.

Tonight @ The Get Down is where........

Press

“See Ivan the Terribles in person if you are feeling like a party. Clegg seems bent on self destruction, so you might want to check these dudes out soon. While he is super-talented (he could remember most of the words and chords for the songs after so much vodka), Clegg is also severely and obviously afflicted, disturbed, torn and tortured in the way too many great artists are, both now and in the past. If these guys were just posing as rock stars, they did a great job. I buy it.”

— Illana Mignon, Mountain Xpress

“They looked so feminine. But they played with so much bravado. I was quite confused...frightened...and strangely aroused.”

— anonymous, word on the street

“Bombastic”

— Alli Marshall, The Mountain Xpress

“They dragged me into the street by my beard! ”

— Nikolai Ilyich Snegiryov, The Tavern

“A good-time, raucous band of maniacs who take the stage with bravado and give a fun, funny and highly entertaining show. If it's been a while since you've been to a good, loud, "God, I drank-too-much," stage-diving, "You-slept-with-who?" take-your-shirt-off-and-dance live show — Ivan the Terribles are your men.”

— Illana Mignon, Mountain Xpress

“He's twitching all over, as if he had cramps."”

— Varvara Nikolaevna, The Brothers Karamazov

"The kind of act that turns a mild-mannered dude into a profanity-spewing death lizard."

— C. Hill, Roam, Buffalo, Roam.
