+ My Name Is Ian, Parcs
Cardiff based John MOuse has been active on the UK indie circuit for over twenty years. Noted for acerbic chronicles of everyday micro-drama and for his performative live act. His most recent project, The Fashion Weak, spawned 3 singles with guest appearances from Gruff Rhys and Miki Berenyi on 80’s synth driven pop vignettes. Championed by BBC 6 Music expect tales of unwanted pigeons and Anne Summers Parties accompanied by some of the finest Dad Dance moves.

Creatures of Cardiff, My Name Is Ian have already built a back catalogue that would have taken The Stone Roses millennia to mirror. Since 2010 their output of thirteen releases have dealt with break-ups, breakdowns, mysterious lion paintings and characters from the Tom Hanks movie Big. This restless productivity has seen genres including but not restricted to lo-fi, bedroom punk, garage rock, prog and anti-folk, all filtered through the pop-oriented cranium of frontman Reginald Foxwell.
