Ionian are a 5-piece, Cumbria-based band who play music ranging from blues to progressive rock. They play a mixture of covers and original music, and are currently working on their own concept album which should be finished by the summer. The band formed after Kiefer, Jamie and Ben left their previous band (after artistic differences). Jamie moved school to Keswick, where he met Mike, and later Sophie. After a couple of jam sessions together, they decided to start Ionian. Ionian experiment with different aspects of rock music, whilst trying to keep the classic feel. They use the instruments to their full potential (which means not just playing 3 power chords). They are all still in secondary school (Mike and sophie are in 6th form), but they have been playing since they were very young and are all experienced musicians, despite their age.
