Ivan Doroschuk is the lead singer and song writer of Men Without Hats, a popular 80s pop band with prominent synthesizer driven songs and most famous for their never fading hit The Safety Dance. After MWH's decline in the 90s, after six albums and a few more hits, though none as highly charted as The Safety Dance, Ivan turned solo. In 1997, he released an album produced by brother and fellow Men Without Hats member Stefan Doroschuk, as simply Ivan and titled The Spell. <a href="https://www.last
