International Pop Overthrow: Volume 23
Out On September 9, 2022

July 28, 2022: Omnivore Recordings and The International Pop Overthrow Music Festival are proud to present International Pop Overthrow: Volume 23, the first since before the pandemic: a three-disc compilation featuring 68 tracks by artists from all over the world who have played the International Pop Overthrow festival… along with some who haven’t.

The IPO compilation goes back as far as the festival, to 1998 when Vol. 1 was a single disc. Since then, the compilation had expanded to two discs the following year, and then three discs in 2002 for Vol. 5, and it has remained a three-disc set through 2022. IPO Vol. 23 showcases artists from nine different countries, doing just about every subgenre of pop music, including power pop, pop/rock, folk/pop, psychedelic pop, garage, indie-rock, modern rock, etc., making it one of the most well-rounded compilations available to the general public.

Although the International Pop Overthrow festival is essentially a showcase for unsigned bands, the compilation has featured signed acts, as well as acts who have gone on to be signed. These include Jason Falkner, Brendan Benson, Roger Joseph Manning, Jr. (Jellyfish; Imperial Drag), AM Radio, Marvin Etzioni (Lone Justice), and Shoes (power pop legends!).

Acts on Vol. 23 to watch out for include:

• April March (sunshine pop chanteuse and animator)
• Fernando Perdomo (producer and member of Echo In The Canyon film band)
• The Loud Family (featuring Game Theory’s Scott Miller) and Anton Barbeau
• David Minchin From The Innocents (Aussie power pop legends)
• Seth Swirsky (Grammy-nominated® songwriter, filmmaker and author)
• The Rave-Ups (Classic Alternative rockers back on the scene)
• Kimberley Rew (founding member of The Soft Boys and “Walking On Sunshine” writer) and Lee Cave-Berry 

When mainstream pop/rock fans play any volume of the IPO compilation, their first response is invariably “this is great; I had no idea people were still making music like this!”. Well, they certainly are, and you can find some of the best examples of it on IPO Vol. 23!
