They began recording, adding new ideas, painting a totally different landscape. Then, when the songs were recorded the best possible way and their concept was ready for some serious mixing and mastering, the boys decided to send to one of the most experienced teams in doing so. The only problem was the name of the band.Some years ago the “Ivories” discovered there was a German band called “Ivory Tower”, thus it was going to be extra hard to continue with their name, should they wanted to pursue a professional edge to their musical way.Brainstorming led to the name “Illusory” was sounded the best solution at the time and still does.The band decided to name their debut “The Ivory Tower”, which sounded completely logical and consequential to their lives and works so far.
