Introducing
Ian Cuthbertson
Stories and Sounds
Ian Cuthbertson has three major influences - McCartney, Mike Oldfield and Joni Mitchell. These three are the stars by which he charts his course but there are many, many others he's been touched by. Roy Harper, John Martyn and Van Morrison to name but three. From folk clubs in Sydney aged 15 (and still at school) to pub residences and band work, clubs and choirs, Ian's journey has been long and winding. Highlights include the release of Fathom - his debut solo album 2010; and the original theme music and audio production for the podcast Bondi Badlands in 2021, which has now had well over 350,000 downloads. The thing Ian's three main influences have in common is that they often play all the instruments and sing all the parts alone. A heady cocktail of possibilities for a once-shy kid with a head full of stories and sounds. The new album, Sage To a Mountain, is the culmination of a lifetime of dreams. This time the songs and instrumental pieces are being mixed and mastered one by one by Pepe Ortega in Mexico City.
