Profile of Ian Griffin (with Audio Clips)


Ian Griffin

Ian Griffin is Britain's Award Winning Keyboard Player. He plays keyboards in an organ configuration, including bass pedals - the only thing missing is the wooden cabinet around them. 

Born in South Wales in 1965, Ian became a professional player as soon as he left school. It was while he was at school that a teacher discovered he had the gift of perfect pitch, which he now finds invaluable when he plays for singers as a solo accompanist - or with his cabaret show band: 'Casual Affair' .

Apart from appearing on BBC1-TV 'Young Entertainers' 

at the age of twelve playing a Hammond organ, one of Ian's biggest achievements was being musical director and playing keyboards with his band in an ITV-Wales series called 'Friday Night Live'.

Ian got together with Richard Bower in the mid 1980's and they soon became Europe's most popular keyboard duo as KEYKLIX. Their standing ovations at all their concerts and major organ-keyboard festivals is proof of their ability to blend together like no other duo.

As a solo artiste, Ian is proud to have been voted 'Organist of the Year' at several organ societies and to be nominated as one of Britain's top ten players at the British Keyboard Player Awards hosted by Hollybush Hotels.

Ian's solo CD albums are slowly becoming collectors items because he does not produce them all that often - but when he does they are really worth listening to.Ian Griffin
