Ryan's Gig Guide

Tuesday 15th May The Robin 2, Bilston, Wolverhampton  Respected as one of Aus- tralia’s iconic musicians, Ian Moss delivers an unforget- table sound – not only as a telling soloist on guitar but especially with his silken voice, ringing with clarity and resonating with pure soul. While primarily recognised as an axeman of tenacity and sweet melodic sensibility, Ian’s distinctive vocal is the essential signature of his soulful, bluesy muse – as it has been since his first ten- tative foray into music dur- ing the early 1970s. Ian Moss returns to the Northern Hemisphere for the third time following a SOLD OUT London perfor- mance in 2017 and in May 2018 will play shows in Lon- don, Glasgow,Wolverhamp- ton and will play Manchester, Dublin, Berlin and Hamburg for the first time. Born and raised in Alice Springs, Ian started playing guitar in local teenage bands but moved to Adelaide after failing one of his high school years, planning to repeat in the big city. Fate intervened when he answered an adver- tisement for a guitarist in a shop window in 1973, joining the band that was to be- come a legend in Australia and that made such an unde- niable impact that they are now etched in theAustralian music psyche forever. That band was Cold Chisel. Moss has released five in- credible and dynamic studio albums – The #1 and multi- platinum, Matchbook, Worlds Away, Petrolhead, Let's all Get Together and Soul onWest 53rd.  www.ianmoss.com.au RGG have a pair of tickets to give away for this gig.
