Ian Franklin is an eclectic singer/songwriter and guitarist out of the San Francisco Bay Area, performing as an acoustic solo artist and with his band.

He mixes the best of roots-rock, funk, jazz, blues and folk - a new genre he calls "Eclectic Pop-Rock." Franklin writes songs of both fantasy and personal life experience, and is passionate about using his art as a channel for communicating with his fans – promoting awareness about issues that he feels deserve attention or simply helping to provide his fans with temporary relief from the daily stressors of life. Franklin just released, “Don’t Do Me Like That” and “Baby I Got Your Fix,” of the forthcoming full length expected out early 2011. Stay tuned for much more with this rising star.
