Details:
Emerging from 80s band Small Change, Ian ventured on a solo career. In 1997 Nursery Records was formed to coincide with the release of Ianâs first solo album âPrimitiveâ. Largely an acoustic set recorded on 8 track cassette Primitiveâs stark mood found many friends.
In 1999, another set â Radio Daysââ was released to critical acclaim. This album featured the talents of many fine musiciansâ¦..Chris Parks (ex- Any Trouble) on lead guitar and Chris Cartlidge (Elvis Fontenot & The Sugar Bees) on fiddle, whistle and pipes.
Ianâs 2003 album âBlood On A Pale Moonâ, moved his songwriting on to new levels. Adding ethnic percussion from Chris Bastock (Backbeat Percussion Quartet), and haunting Alto Sax from Tracey Martin, the collection provides an essential addition to any collector of the modern acoustic genre.
'Tight Lines' is a compilation or 'taster' to Ians back catalogue.......all tracks re-mastered digitally and includes a 'live 'track
