You can catch That Fucking Ivan every second Tuesday as the host of SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY! A punk & hip-hop showcase at the Hawthorne Hideaway!!!

Portland based Punk-Rapper That Fucking Ivan merges the philosophy of anti-authoritarian punk with the unapologetic delivery of underground hip-hop. Hailing from Atlanta GA, T.F. Ivan was exposed to addiction, abuse, domestic violence, and poverty from infancy. As a product of a destructive environment the cycle of mindless self-indulgence becoming self-destruction was unavoidable. Making his demons a muse, the destructive elements have become instruments of creation.

Since 2017 he has released 4 projects as a solo artist; “Clear Your Mind Vol. 1” (2017), “Art & Carcinogens” (2018) , “Clear Your Mind Vol. 2” (2019), and “Live At The Star Theater”(2021). One album with his side project Sacred Sages was released in 2019; “Ludonarritive Dissonance”. He has appeared as a feature artist on dozens of songs with artists of varying genres and has preformed in handful of music videos. As co-host of the Smokey Sunday Hip-Hop Showcase (2018-2020) he began promoting events and now promotes “FUCK-Fest” and “The Punk Rap Show” annually.

T.F. Ivan is one-half of the Hybrid-Hardcore Death-Rap band, CISTERS (Bass/Vocals). Joining forces with Null of North Jersey (Guitar/Vocals) with their rough-cut demo “Kill Hipsters” (05-25-2020) a combination of Hardcore Punk and Hip-hop. They released their first official Cisters EP, “Catacombs & Cataclysms” (9-11-2021) as a split from old and new and a mating of occult numerology and eclectic musical styles. Cisters’ most recent release is their 2nd offical EP “SEX WORK is REAL WORK” (11-22-2022). A mixture of heavy-trap and hardcore punk, their 2nd EP pays homage to influences that brought Cisters together and serves as a big Fuck You to the people in this world that abuse and brutalize the weakest of us.

Committed to the art of folk-telling, That Fucking Ivan is driven to tell the story many still refuse to hear. The music always a reflection of reality.
