    The density of this episode is incredible. Ian's ability to articulate the tonal differences in words, body movement etc. Is incredible and enlightening

    I haven't listened to lots of podcasts, but ian is by far the most talented musician I've heard on here. I can only describe his playing as gorgeous. Wonderful arrangements.

    It is always good when Ian’s in the room. Can clearly hear the classical education in the masterful way each string sings. ❤️

    Most smiling I've done all week so far! I love the mind-blowingly tricky arrangements of Disney songs. Simple does not mean easy. I could never play 'em, but I sure like listening to 'em. Mahalo for the music, All.

    So good to see Ian back. Wow, bar set so high right from the off, and didn’t disappoint. Mickey as a warm up, clearly shows the master level Ian is at and you guys support of any artist that are playing, so much respect. Light years away from my scale of C and D😂. The 5K Anuenue is stunning and am using this show to play to my wife, as to why I am saving up for my next Uke. Just a note, Ian’s tonal and articulate communication was so relaxing to listen too with yourself Andrew. Andrew, it’s a skill to ask such knowledgeable questions to draw the best out of your guests, a skill that is appreciated, am sure, by the wider World Uke community. Have a peaceful weekend.

      Currently CDs are directly through my website. I have one solo EP on spotify and itunes called "Songs for my Son". I had a couple other full length guitar albums digitally available but took them down to re-release them under a record label.

    My job doesn't allow me to have (very little) fingernails... Any suggestions?

    • @ianosullivan9052
      @ianosullivan9052 Рік тому

      Alaska Picks, or Rico Nails(temporary nails for playing guitar), both easy to find via google search. On a side note, Playing without nails can be very good for developing ones technique. Nails are very distracting and we often end up focusing more on nail shape or nail tone rather than good hand position and how the fingers move, posture, musical analysis, sustain of melody notes, shaping a melody etc etc etc. There is a whole world of things musicians need to develop besides nails. Short story long, don't feel too bad about not playing with nails.
