Ivan Dobsky (now called Panda Party)

About Me

welcome to the myspace of ivan dobsky. we come from leamington spa, where steep inclines and continental drift are the primary causes for concern. we attempt to offset the hysterical effects of these realisations by playing sax saturated symphonic short stories to every and any willing audience. all of this, without a hint of irony or sarcasm

we've renamed ourselves to PANDA PARTY - please head to our new myspace or visit our website
