The Coral's Ian Skelly announces debut solo album
British singer / songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and visual artist Ian Skelly releases his debut album, Cut From A Star through Watertown Records on Monday December 10th 2012.
This is SkellyВЃfs first solo long player having previously drummed for The Coral for over a decade.

The music combines influences from the spiritual side of psychedelia and emulates the techniques of 60ВЃЕ’s and 70ВЃЕ’s recording.
It includes appearances by James Skelly featured playing bass on ВЃeCut from A StarВЃf, Paul Duffy and Nick Power feature throughout the whole album contributing bass and keyboard parts. The album also includes Sundowners on backing vocals and guitar and bass for the song ВЃeI See YouВЃf.
