Born in 1968, Ian grew up in Western
Connecticut with Seven-teen entertaining
and musical brothers and sisters. Friday
night family talent shows and outrageous
dinnertime jam sessions, where people
were encouraged to play instruments such as:
“fork-boing,” “salt shaker,” or “nose” gave Ian a lighthearted approach to
music.
James Taylor and Jackson Browne, among
many “Singer/Songwriter’s” influenced Ian’s
musical taste.
Though Ian joined the Navy to pay for College,
He found true adventure spending five years
as a Naval Aviator, patrolling the world’s oceans
by plane; traveling around the world, carrying a
guitar wherever a guitar would go.
He left the Navy, after the Gulf War, and drove a beat up Jeep around the
United States, looking for a little peace and adventure. Somewhere just
outside of the Grand Canyon, the songwriter found his voice. Ian took his
new songs back to Connecticut and began to record the first of two
albums. His original work is introspective; stories of survival in the human
condition. Depth and humor make these albums an easy listen.
Ian’s music has been getting acclaim throughout the
Northeast. Both of his albums have enjoyed regular
radio play at FM radio stations in Connecticut, and
his song, “Litchfield Hills Road Race” (a fun song
written after finishing ‘said race’) is endlessly
played and sang at this wild and huge road race.
Through CD sales and a mailing list, Ian’s live
shows have grown from "that guy in the corner" to
original concerts and mini tours. Ian has gone into
the studio (with some "Heavy hitters") to record his
eagerly anticipated third album.
He regularly performs live throughout the Northeast..
