bass face he is deeply rooted in the intoxicating rhythms of funk, jazz, and
soul, Ian's presence onstage is foundational. As Wesley's right-hand man, he's
the unshakable force that cements the band's rhythm, infusing each groove with
funk-inspired runs. His mastery of the bass began before he could even reach
the tuning pegs, as he played with many bands including George Mason's pep band
the Green Machine, a local jazz band Groovejet, as

an invaluable asset, enriching the band's performances with his diverse musical
talents.
