...

by Jack McCord

Salaam ! Back to everybody's favourite outdoor Sinai nightclub last Saturday... Pacha, Sharm El-Sheikh. This gig was one of the highlights of my summer last year and they're still raving about their Kandi New Year's Eve party so I was expecting great things even if it was low-season tourist wise.

 Ian C 

 Hed Kandi Musician 

Biography:Hed Kandi resident percussionist Ian.C continues to astound with his new approach to dance orientated percussion in clubs, at events and in studios around the world from Colombia to Moscow to Dubai. He will blow you away..

Over the last 12 years Ian has performed with pretty much all of today’s A-list DJs, for most of clublands biggest nights. His work has been as diverse as recording and performing with Lisa Marie Experience, to playing percussion in Jenny Frost's (Atomic Kitten) band. He has worked for brands including MTV, Galaxy, Diesel and Bacardi and he continues to be noticed at Hed Kandi events worldwide. He has coupled traditional hand percussion with state of the art technology, using the awesome electronic percussion kit from brand leaders Roland (who officially approve Ian's expert use of their product) - there are few skilled exponents of this set up on the live scene today. Ian adds a whole new depth and attitude to the very idea of dance music percussion - he has quite simply changed the rules. Even Roland Music has said, "Ian C adds a whole new dimension to music. His touch to a tune is phenomenal!”

With a full summer season for Hed Kandi at their flagship night in Ibiza in 2007 and a solo album ´Vagabonds Disco´ to his credit – Ian C will continue to be noticed for all the right reasons..
