These days it’s hard to imagine a world without “Safety Dance” or “Pop Goes The World” but back in 1977 in Montreal Canada when Ivan Doroschuk started then punk rock turned New Wave outfit “Men Without Hats” he surely only dreamed he would write the 2 globally recognized smash hits and definitely had no idea
his songs would be heard everywhere from McDonalds restaurant ads, Alaska airlines commercials to multi media Super bowl campaigns not to mention the now infamous Tide pods “Pop Goes World” campaign and the global soccer chant at UEFA Euro 2024!

Back then Ivan was joined by his brother Colin Doroschuk for the better part of the 80’s along with a host of other talented musicians, Ivan being the main songwriter and constant throughout the years.

With a long string of successful album releases and a 2020 induction into the Canadian songwriters hall of fame we fast forward to 2023 where, as if it was meant to be the Men Without Hats family ties would come full circle when replacing brother Colin Doroschuk on keyboards was his lovely and extremely talented daughter Sahara Sloan.

Recently Ivan has been working in studio writing and recording 2 new singles with Grammy & Juno award winning producer Brian Howes for release in mid 2025!

The current line up of Ivan Doroschuk (vocals), Sahara Doroschuk – Sloan (keyboards + Vocals), Sho Murray (Guitar) and veteran drummer Adrian White is a line up for the ages!
