Ian Brown is an English musician and is best known as the former frontman of The Stone Roses with attitude and an infamous swagger. Following the official breakup of the band in 1996, Ian Brown has pursued a successful solo career with his unconventional yet accessible music. He turns every performance into a celebration including sets at Glastonbury, V Festival and T in the Park. The Arctic Monkeys have described him as a ‘musical hero’ and in 2006 NME presented him with the ‘Godlike Genius’ award.
