Son of Ian
Working Class songs played with street life grit and heartland soul, Utah based band, Son of Ian sounds more like they were born and raised in the bronx or even the dirty south than small town Bountiful Utah. If Bruce Springsteen is the boss, then Trenton McKean (lead singer and guitarist) is the lead foreman. When you see this band live, you are transported to a time when music mattered more than looks or style. A Streetlight poet, with Tom Wait‰Ûªs rally cry, a dose of Steely Dan‰Ûªs jazz and Dave Matthews musicianship, Son of Ian delivers something eclectic, yet so new and fresh that you want to go and tell all of your vinyl junky pals all about them! Son of Ian was formed in 2010. Since then they have come into their own. with Dave ‰ÛÏBishop‰Û� Oster blowing down the house with his wicked sax, Trinidad native, Carl Ross on bass, Californian, Evan Powell keeping the beat, and Patrick Neville‰Ûªs beautiful leads on guitar. This band is a force to be reckoned with and about to go nationwide. Their latest album, Good Morning September is compelling all the way through. With groove filled songs like ‰ÛÏStop But Think‰Û�, the potential top 10 hit, ‰ÛÏBitter World‰Û�, the catchy hook of the title track, and the drinking ditty ‰ÛÏDown Below‰Û� this record takes you through a consistent flow of rock and soul. Listen for 30 seconds and you‰Ûªll realize that the good old rock music of days past is still alive, right here in the present.
