    I recall the events, like in a movie flash,
    and immediately have a better understanding
    of what happened,Understanding is what
    ultimately heals my soul.

Ian Guerin: The Whole Story

Ian Guerin is an independent recording artist, songwriter and producer that has been doing music since the age of 9—his music has been showcased on NBC, ABC Network, Fox TV and Digital Journal, among others. Ian Guerin has come a long way since the recording of his first and second covers demos titled 'One' and 'Magical Me' respectively.


10 awards, two albums, 3 UK #1 singles, a feature film theme song — and a handful of critical acclaim later — Ian Guerin has become a force to be reckoned with in the world of entertainment.


“He's got this innate vibe that, when the light comes on in a room there he is, but he's no cookie-cutter, he tells it like it is.” – Actress, model, host extraordinaire, Sherry Nelson (Movie Reviews and More.)

                                   


Ian first performed live at age 13 when he sang Ozzy Osbourne’s 'Crazy Train' at his elementary school’s talent show. Said performance was followed by one of Michael Jackson's 'Black or White,' 'Billie Jean,' and a 'The Way You Make Me Feel and Beat It' medley the following years.


“I'm very excited for his future, I'm very excited for people to experience his light and to experience his music; I'm astounded by his work ethic,” said Rissa Marie from Culture Fuzz.

                                   


Ian recorded a Michael Jackson tribute demo titled 'Revenge' during his junior year in highschool. The album was different to the previous in the sense that it contained all Jackson material, as well as Ian's first self-penned offering 'Just One Chance,' which was subsequently released to streaming services and later removed. Furthermore, only one of Guerin's cover songs from those first three demo album's is currently available online, while later covers of 'Kissing a Fool', 'Walking in Memphis', 'I Look to You', and even 'Let It Snow' and 'Jingle Bell Rock', can be found on Youtube.

                                  


“I never was one for school. I completely lost interest in it after my 'Crazy Train' performance; I figured it worked for some, but it wasn't for me; I was never into it again.” - Ian Guerin


From 2009 to 2012 Ian recorded more than two dozen demos in his home studio. He also produced an instrumental album called 'Spin that S**t,' and remixed more than fifteen famous songs, all to which he added self-penned rap verses. Some of the all new songs he wrote during that time are: 'Innocence,' 'Black Dress,' 'Mirage,' 'No Love In Valentine' and 'Fake Love'—which years later morphed into the title track of his album 'Irreplaceable.'


“There are lines I never forget and that “Fake Loves” hook was one of them. I was 14 when I wrote it and years later it proved itself worth; no wonder universal timing is always perfect.” - Ian Guerin

                                  
Ian stepped into the music scene professionally in 2010 with the release of his debut single 'Bubblegum' on August 27.

                                  
'Bubblegum' was well received by fans and friends and remixed by rapper DBXXL in the 'Eass, Eass, Eass Remix' available on Youtube.

                                  
The second single of his debut album, 'I Heart' was released alongside its music video on June 11, 2012. It was Ian's first song to have an official video, even though he had shot one for 'Bubblegum' as well. Please note the unreleased 'Bubblegum' video is available on alternate channels on Youtube.

                                  
On June 20, 2012 the title track of Ian's upcoming debut album was released as a lead single alongside its accompanying music video.

                                  
His debut album 'Madsexy' was released on August 29, 2012. The album spanned four singles; the aforementioned, plus the funk-pop song 'New V.I.P.' which was released on June 17, 2013.

                                  
In the summer of 2014 Ian opened his Vevo channel and crossed over from Pop to RnB. However, 'Pop This Jam' (Hip Hop Version), the collaboration between Ian and Australian producers Phat Records, was released on October 21st, 2014 via the alternate Youtube channel Ian Guerin OFF Vevo Channel.


'Pop This Jam' (Hip Hop Version) WON a BEAT 100 UK Silver Song Award for "Best Written Original Song" and a Press Award upon release.

                                  
On December 12 it made its American Radio Debut on WGTSDB's The Gud Tymez Show. Due to its success, it also spanned a remix called 'Jam' (Forever).

It also made its American radio debut on Tuesday July 21, 2015 on WGTS-DB’s The Gud Tymez Show, and was later served to select AC and RnB/Soul stations nationwide and in the United Kingdom. In December 15, 2015, 'Cry' WON Best RnB/Soul Song of the Year at the Akademia Awards.


About the win the Judging panel wrote:


'With a glorious 90's-style vocal aesthetic and classical piano runs, Ian Guerin's ''Cry'' asks the musical question: How much can one man hurt on account of his unrequited love?'

                                  


On July 27 2017, the singer announced he was halfway through recording his sophomore album and that, unlike 'Madsexy', it would primarily focus on Neo Soul, RnB and Adult Contemporary music.

'Free Time' was released in the United States on June 4, 2019. About the song The World News Network said:


“Think of your most romantic Barry White moment, then add a twist of modern retro Mark Ronson style production and an extremely talented white artist with a Bruno Mars-esque vocal, that will give you just a taste of how retro-fabulous the single ‘Free Time’ by Ian Guerin is.”



                                  
On March 23, 2018 Ian Guerin released his first ever feature film theme song called 'Gracias Por Ser Mi Amigo'. Unlike his previous releases, the Spanish-sung track was not written or produced by Guerin. Instead, it was written by Mexican singer, songwriter Jose Gerardo. The movie of the same name premiered nationwide one week after the release of the song to moderate success.



                                  


On May 25, 2018 Ian Guerin released a new song from his upcoming album called 'A Different Affair'. Upon release 'A Different Affair' received rave reviews. Roger Jansen from Jansen’s Jamz Blog from the UK stated:


“The third taster of his forthcoming sophomore album is driven by a retro-disco beat and 70s-style violins. With plucky guitars, vibrant hand-claps and an infectious hook teasing the senses, his luscious, soul-dripping RnB vocals add a more contemporary layer to the vintage vibe of the instrumentation. It’s an exhilarating, polished and zesty disco/soul tune, which sounds ear-poppingly refreshing.”


Though 'Affair' was not considered a formal single, it was promoted as such and sent to radio stations in various countries quickly becoming one of Guerin’s most critically acclaimed song to date.

                                  
On September 14, 2018 the Affair singer dropped yet another single called 'Roll the Dice'. The single was released alongside its accompanying music video to rave reviews by critics and fans. The fourth cut from parent album 'Irreplaceable', 'Roll the Dice' contains elements of 70’s disco music, RnB, Pop and Funk music; it was written by Guerin and produced by Azhmir Vangort. About 'Dice', New Jersey based-blog Come Here Floyd said:


“Easy, fun, and more fun. The lyrics put on top of the way Ian’s vocals come to play on the tracks, make it playful and serious at the same time. When you put that along a layer of a music video like ‘Roll The Dice’, then you get easy accessibility to Ian’s sense of music, focus, and indomitable will for what pop is to him.”

                                  
‘Roll the Dice’ was Ian’s first song to be featured on a Spotify Editorial Playlist and his first song to have both an official music video and a lyric video; the first directed by Mar Guerin, and released via Ian Guerin Vevo, and the second created by Guillermo Guerin and released via IAN GUERIN OFF Vevo CHANNEL.

“I would say that 'Irreplaceable' is the best retro-soul record I've heard in a while, but “retro” would feel too much like pigeonholing Mr. Guerin. This is an album where a classic streak and a millennial sensibility work hand in hand.” – Edmund Baker | Indie Pulse Magazine

Listening to music and making it takes up most of my time”. - Ian Guerin
