What Ian does, effortlessly, is take the audience on a sumptuous musical journey, making you feel countless emotions, as his passion is thrown into every note.”

“Ian is everything you want in a musician. Not only incredibly talented, but he also glows with infectious energy, love & real genuine joy. He nails every music genre, all the time keeping the audience in the palm of his hand.

With Ian, you always feel as though you’re part of the show rather than a spectator, and that’s what makes him so brilliantly unique. He makes every moment extra special. A true gem.”
