Ian McGlynn

For nearly two decades, the quietly famous Ian McGlynn has been churning out heartbreakers and soul stirrers. Songs that have served as accompaniment to major motion pictures and minor heartaches.

Ian's 3rd studio album "Now We're Golden," produced by Ken Stringfellow (The Posies, R.E.M., Big Star), is available everywhere you listen to music.
