I started acting a year ago; I had been performing as a musician (singer / songwriter / guitarist) for two years previously and this taught me to take on a performing persona on stage. This was easy to transfer to acting and I find the challenge of acting really exciting.

I have alopecia, which means that I am very bald (unless I haven't shaved for a while) and have no eyebrows, which gives me an unusual look, but also makes it easy to change my appearance.
If you need any other information, give me a call or hunt me down on skype (you can link from my Facebook)

I am a guitarist / singer / songwriter based in Nuneaton and working around Warwickshire and the West Midlands area.

I have recently become self-employed in order to be able to completely focus on music (with a bit of acting thrown in) and I am currently seeking new projects to work on. I have a huge love of music and am always totally committed to any project I become involved in.
I am currently developing a number of acoustic duos (see www.crazypigeons.co.uk for more information) and I also perform as a solo artist (both original songs and covers) and with other artists from time to time:

I have been playing guitar for many years, but only in the live environment for a couple of years, having effectively been forced to by my son. Having been initially reluctant, the real trick now is being able to stop me performing. I believe I have a very adaptable style and am able to play just about anything and learn new material very quickly. Let me know if you think I can be of help or if you want any other information. You should be able to find me on Facebook as Ian Bourne or Ian Bourne Music.
