Ian lane fiddle

I was born on January 13, 2007 in Vero Beach, Florida.  My musical journey began in 2019 when I received a new fiddle for Christmas.  Due to the pandemic, I had lots of spare time on my hands to learn how to play many fiddle tunes.  Early on, I was mostly self-taught and learned primarily "by ear" or by watching videos.  In 2020 I felt confident enough to start playing with other musicians at local jams and festivals.  I quickly learned many new techniques and have been truly blessed to meet an outstanding group of musicians that have helped me tremendously as my playing has progressed.  I continue to learn new fiddle playing skills almost daily and look forward to a lifetime of honing my craft and sharing my knowledge and music with others.  

Over the past year, I have had many great opportunities to play with some excellent bands and learn from some great musicians.  I even got invited to go on tour with Rhonda Vincent and The Rage including doing two shows on the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville!  

Since graduating high school in January of this year I have started my own band called Ian Lane and Southern Flavor.  I am joined in the band by my good friend and mentor Keith Bass along with brothers Tippen and Alton Padgett, and Rex Putnam on bass fiddle.  We focus on tight harmonies and hard driving Bluegrass!
