Son of Ian – Good Morning September
For starters, I haven’t heard a CD that I have listened to multiple times over and over and over again or not even been able to get through the whole album because I keep playing the first few songs multiple times since way back when I listened to Pearl Jam Ten in August of 1991 for the first time.  For all the PJ haters, they are my absolute favorite band and always will be.  However, I have a new close second, Son of Ian which is headed by Trenton McKean who is THE real deal!  I absolutely love the sound, vibe, and entire album.  I have not heard such a marriage of the saxophone with a band that sounded so harmoniously perfect since Clarence Clemens AKA The Big Man and Springsteen were united.  I also have to admit that I subscribed in the 80’s to Backstreet magazine, the Bruce Springsteen fanzine, which explains two things:  how much of a music nerd I was and the love of the soulful piercing backdrop of a saxophone into any song.  That is why I have fallen for my new love of the infusion of Dave “Bishop” Oster with Trenton McKean (which is Scottish for Ian). Since Clarence Clemons’ passing, no one has been able to hold a torch until now.
The opportunity to talk with Trenton personally arose and I have to say; he is as cool in person as his band persona.  I’m a true fan.  He laughed when I informed him of two things:  1.  Trenton is white  2.  Trenton has orgasm eyes when he sings.  Actually, both of us laughed at those things!  He assured me that I wasn’t the first to point out the obvious.  However, he is so passionate about his music and getting his message across that he truly gets into every song emotionally and belts out his guttural sound with all he has which sometimes it leads to him digging deep inside to get it all out which in turn rolls the eyes back and sets him into a world of his own.  Well Trenton, you are not alone….you set us all off into that world with your efforts!  Funny thing with Trenton is that the very first time I put the CD in to the player I joked “hey~it’s John Mayer with talent” but later took it back because it was so unfair to even make that comparison!  Son of Ian is destined to be the next best thing!  I don’t want to sound like “yer bum’s oot the windae!” rather, “lang may yer lum reek”.  In essence, I’m not blowing smoke and live long and keep well.  The creativity of this band will take it to the top where they belong.  Trenton also reassured me of my own passion…if it feels good…it is good.  Thanks man…it feels good…I should be the one with the orgasm eyes because it feels that good!

American Musicians Radio

Son of Ian @ http://www.utahmusicians.net/ (AMR) http://www.americanmusiciansradio.com/index.html We just did a live interview / performance at AMR radio with John Farmer.

If you haven't had a chance to check out what AMR is doing. Go to the above website. John is going to put Salt Lake City, UT on the map and make a name for Utah and its music scene. The cool thing about AMR is that by tuning in you can hear local music coming out of that individual state. Also, if you are a musician you can send your music in to AMR and have it played. John doesn't discriminate to the bands or musicians. He will play whatever you send in. Radio stations need to be more like this! But, unfortunately, they only play top 40's and bombard you with commercials. John brings a whole new flavor to the roll of radio. So Please show your support for local music!
