Ian George along with his gorgeous band of talented handsome young men (percussion, electric guitar, bass) deliver the sort of concert you’ll likely sway, sing, laugh and probably cry too. The live performance is an experimental and emotional ride teeming with whimsicality, clever arrangements – interrupted by triumphant tangents – and outlandish solos grounded by George’s emotive and gauzy voice and by the simple strength of a good song.  Expect an engaging and dynamic string of gentle and not so gentle folk-rock adventures.

“Ian George is a fanciful folk troubadour with a rhythmic flow and spirited vision. He’s an American Matt Corby; a heartwarming blend of Iron & Wine’s folk and Vampire Weekend’s frisky energy. George’s music is the type to which one would ascribe words like frolic and wandering, but his songs are equally intimate and emotional…  Worthy of everyone’s ears, songs we can teach our children, our parents, our grandparents, and ourselves.” 

~ Atwood Magazine

The band consists of Ian George – acoustic guitar, vocals, Ethan Boardman – drums and Jack Radsliff – electric guitar
