IVORY is a Symphonic Epic Metal band from Minsk, Belarus. It was founded in 2008 by singer Sergei Butovsky and keyboard player Dmitry Chernyshevski. In the beginning the band played a mixture of classic hard rock and progressive rock. But in 2012, due to musical differences, the band changes most of its musicians and starts to work in the field of more heavy and complexively arranged symphonic heavy metal with elements of prog-power metal. Soon the musicians start recording their first album, and the work goes on for about 3 years. In June 2015 a new track "Ulysses" was released as first single, while in December 2015, the band finished their first album which was named "Southern Cross". Finally the band signed with Rockshots records and the album can at last be released to the metal masses.
