About Me |
|
| Ian Anthony is a songwriter and self-taught musician. He plays a number of instruments, the chief one being bass guitar. He also plays steel drums (bass), maracas, and irons, a percussive instrument used in steelband orchestras.
He was born in Trinidad, West Indies, and is a naturalized US citizen currently residing in New York. He is the founder of IR Music Publishing and All Inclusive Records. He plays and/or composes instrumentals, new age and chamber music, blues, bossa nova, calypso, jazz, and pop music of all varieties. Ian takes pride in stating he has no formal musical training. His attempts to understand theory came, to paraphrase him, at his own leisure and at no formal institution. He hopes to release his first professional recording entitled “In Memory of Nina Simone,” under his own label, as a dedication to one of his biggest musical influences by Spring 2009. |
