Ian’s Story

Ian Michael Frost is a dynamic and versatile musician whose career has spanned over two decades, delighting audiences with his extraordinary guitar and vocal talents. Starting in 2002, Ian honed his craft in the lively pubs and social clubs of London, performing with an Irish duo. From 2003 to 2011, he became a sought-after performer at functions, weddings, and parties, bringing his guitar and vocal prowess to various acts across London and the Home Counties.

By 2011, Ian had taken the reins of the "Let’s Face the Music" party band in Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, showcasing his skills not only as a guitarist and vocalist but also as a music arranger. His professional journey continued to flourish as he became a staple in the London and South East music scene in 2015. The following year marked his debut as the lead guitarist onboard the 'Carnival Pride' cruise ship, where he dazzled passengers with themed sets ranging from Disco to Classic Rock, Motown, and even live karaoke.

Between 2016 and 2019, Ian embarked on a thrilling voyage as a featured soloist with Princess Cruises. His solo acoustic and electric guitar performances, sometimes accompanied by backing tracks, expanded his repertoire to over 500 songs. During the pandemic, he adapted by teaching guitar online, sharing his expertise with aspiring musicians nationwide.

From 2021 to 2024, Ian continued to captivate audiences across the country with various party bands, playing an eclectic mix of folk, pop, and rock. His return to Princess Cruises as a featured soloist from 2024 to 2026 reaffirmed his status as a cruise favourite. Currently, Ian headlines with Blackburn International, performing an Eric Clapton Celebration show on Viking, Celebrity and Princess cruises, bringing his passion and talent to new heights.

EVENTS

  • Ian was amazing at my party

    ★★★★★

    his combination of tracks ensured we got everyone on the dancefloor, young and old, with many of the vintage guests bemoaning their aging limbs as they would have loved to have joined in. He has a great repertoire and is flexible in delivering what is needed on the night to deliver the party atmosphere. It felt a real luxury having live music and it made a real difference to the evening. Ian was lovely to deal with and I am now looking for an excuse to host another party and use Ian for the entertainment!

  • Superb quality talented entertainer and musician!

    ★★★★★

    Don't hesitate! Ian delivered a blinding performance for our Banquet Weekend at Oxford Spires through One Fun Band. He arrived well in time, he delivered a varied and creative set going right through without even a break. We could not believe his musical stamina. We got delayed with our charity raffle so his rest was before the massive set. We felt we had our own Brian May / Noel Gallagher all in one. He is a very talented musician, vocals, sound effects, backing tracks and accomplished guitarist who also builds his own guitars 🎸...just like Brian May!

  • Do yourself a favour and book this man for your next gig!

    ★★★★★

    My 60th birthday party was in a small venue with about 100 people, the youngest being 6 years old and the oldest being a very fit 89 years old, with all the ages in between. Ian came early to set up and his lighting rig and sound system were perfect for our particular set up. I can honestly say that his entertainment was astounding. He played guitar and sang a wide range of popular songs for all age groups. He soon had the dance floor full and everyone singing along while they danced. Ian did 3 sets of live music and then played dance tunes in between on his breaks. The 2 things that stand out are Ian's professionalism and everyone telling me how amazing he was. My social media went crazy the next day. Do yourself a favour and book this man for your next gig!

  • Incredible Artist!

    ★★★★★

    We booked Ian for my 50th birthday party and he was incredible. You would never have known that there wasn’t a full band on stage, his song selection was great, the dance floor was full for both his sets and he’s a really lovely guy. Thoroughly recommend for any event where you need a party starter.
