Ian’s most recent work has been to produce the first single from the incredibly talented Lucy. The single, “Walking with You,” is released on the 13th September 2024.
BAFTA nominated Lucy stole the nation’s hearts when she won Channel 4’s The Piano at just 13 years old, having performed on a keyboard at Leeds Train Station. Lucy stopped people in their tracks and left bystanders in tears as she played her beautiful rendition of Chopin‘s Nocturne in B-flat Minor.
