Ian Moore, guitarist and singer-songwriter from Austin, Texas makes his way to House of Rock with special guest, Heavy Soul!
Ian is a triple threat and an artist’s artist. He came up in Austin, mentored by the greats. Stevie Ray Vaughan famously gave him his first guitar, and you can hear the lineage in his fingers, but then you hear that voice…” I was obsessed with the soul singers as a kid,” he says, and you can hear those influences in his silky falsetto and his soulful phrasing. Spin magazine described him as a cross between Aaron Neville and Jimi Hendrix, and that duality sets him apart from so many other guitarists. There is a sensitivity within the fire and an economy in his playing that came from years and years playing with the greats as a young man, sharing stages with Willie Nelson, Albert King, Jimmie Vaughan, Albert Collins, Doug Sahm, and many others while still in his teens and early twenties.
