Ian Babington's Biography

Hi, I'm Ian, thanks for finding my music - I hope you enjoy what you hear.

I'm a singer-songwriter, performing acoustically, and am based in Leicester in the English Midlands. Born and bred in Dudley, buying my first guitar coincided with the rise of local bands like PWEI, Wonder Stuff and Neds Atomic Dustbin, and this led me to form several bands over the years. However, after moving to Leicester in the mid 90s I stumbled into the acoustic scene, and have been writing and performing as a solo artist since.

My influences are many and varied - from Americana like Nanci Griffith, through folk writers like Pete Morton, Karine Polwart and many more, to more indie stuff and - of course - the real classics like The Beatles, Kinks, Byrds etc. Its a mixed bag, but hopefully it always prod..

Tinseltown.....

Submitted by Ian Babington on Sun, 2007-11-18 15:09.

Hi everyone, hows everybody doing ? Thanks for finding this page - whether you've looked me up deliberately or stumbled across my music by accident, its good to see you.

I'm just leaving a quick note to say that on this page, as on a few others, you will find a song of mine called 'Tinseltown'. All proceeds from the sale of the song are going towards supporting Cancer Support Dudley - a charity that provides practical support, counselling and guidance to cancer sufferers and their families in the borough of Dudley (ie the town in the heart of England where I grew up). If you enjoy the tune, then please support a great cause by purchasing the track.
