Ian Bartlett is a progressive rock musician from
Bristol UK. He is self-taught and works in his home studio to compose and record his music. Although he has been playing guitar and keyboard and writing lyrics for many years, it was only in 2006 that he decided to promote his music on the internet. He has completed two albums "Beyond" and "Psychles" and is currently working on a third album. In addition, he is featured on the Anubis Spire Tribute CD "The Gods Have Chosen" doing his own version of "Talisman of the Dreamer", a song written by Bill Mackechnie from the album "Old Lions in the World of Snarling Sheep". A collaboration project with Bill is also planned for the future.
Ian has built up a steady cult following on the internet due to internet chart hits such as "Beyond", "The Twelfth Dream" and "Lair of the Succubus" amongst others. He has gained radio airplay from Fox FM and K94 Rocks, as well as being featured on Progpriestess Melo's Progcasts.
Ian's material is atmospheric and makes the best use of his lyrical and musical talents, dealing with such subjects as life after death, dreams and the supernatural. These are subjects which have long fascinated him, hence this musical exploration. The musical themes in his compositions vary from dark and heavy moods with Eastern influences to uplifting and melodic soundscapes.
