About Ivana Setiawan

Quick background check:

  • 1. I was born on November,12 1987 in Tulungagung, East Java - Indonesia. It's an extremely small village that I wouldn't be surprised if it's excluded on the map. Anyway, my parents moved to Surabaya since I was an infant. That's where I lived till I was about 17 yo.
  • 2. When I was 17 I was lucky enough to get a scholarship & moved to the Netherlands. Not that simple tho, lots of drama involved - mom cried like I was dead. Oh anyway - I buried my dream to study in Canada since (darn you destiny!)
    Not true, I am still considering to do that sometime in the future actually. Like when one of my great-great ancestors got really really rich from a lottery and died.
    shit, why am I being so mean?! I love my family - forget bout my last comment.
    Move on..
  • 3. And then I was 20

    Quick hint: College was boring as fuck.
    I moved to California (OC - LA) - started as an intern at Subset M (New media marketing company in Entertainment business). 6 months passed & they hired me (woott!). I met cool friends as well as cool artists there - went to Grammy Nomination for free with Cari Reed (also known as Mrs. Mraz) :D

    2 things I remember:

    • John Mayer's hot - he's my future husband, I'm telling you.
    • Jonas Brothers are lame as fuck. They acted too cute, made me wanna puch'em in the face.
  • 4. Kaboom! back to the Netherlands and signed at 80beans
