Hello
I'm Ian - a teacher, singer and proud dad of nine! I've created Sizzle to give children a safe, fun and confidence boosting-space to explore their voices, express themselves and experience the joy of singing! ​Scroll down for more about Sizzle, our mission, my story and to listen to me sing.

Our Mission
​Our mission is simple: to help young people develop confidence and find their spark - through singing, connection and joyful expression!
​
We understand that all children are unique. Whether they're quiet or outgoing, beginners, secret singers or born performers, every child deserves the chance to shine, from the inside out! See my story below. ​​
My Story
I'm a qualified primary school teacher, who loves to sing! However, it took me decades to pluck up the courage to take that secret shower singing to the public stage. I would love for as many children as possible to short-cut that process! Having worked in education for 14 years, I have seen the immense opportunity for children to grow their confidence and express themselves through singing, right now and for a lifetime. So, with nearly 3 years of vocal training from Kay Moorcroft at The Singers Club (one of the leading vocal coaches in The Midlands), I thought it would be a good time to give this amazing opportunity to as many children as possible. Quad Studios is a superb central venue to launch, with a safe and professional studio environment and lots of mics to go around. So, beginner, secret singer, or born performer, I'm confident that we can give the support and encouragement to light your child's creative spark, build confidence and let them shine from the inside out!

I tend to favour soul and soulful songs, but overall I just love how music can make emotional connections with the singer and listeners, in their own personal way - whether that's a deep and meaningful experience or simply a relaxed or happy vibe. I'm open to all genres and will be helping the children find their preferred tunes! There is a chance for children to recommend their favourite songs on the booking form (or whilst at a camp or a lesson). ​
