Ian Prowse and Amsterdam 'mersey Hymns'

Ian Prowse & Amsterdam - Mersey Hymns Tour 2024 Following the success of Ian's Mersey Hymns Acoustic tour featuring Ian and The Fiddle of Fire, the full band return this coming October with a handful of special full band shows. Merseyside hero Ian Prowse is a guitarist, singer-songwriter, and frontman of Amsterdam and previously the frontman of indie cult band Pele. Raised on protest songs, influenced by the Celtic sounds that make Liverpool so unique, and inspired by the song writing craftsmanship of Paul Weller, Mike Scott, Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello, Ians 30-year song writing career and 100% committed live shows have gathered him a reputation as the Scouse Springsteen amongst his devoted fans. Amsterdam saw success with their first single The Journey hitting the UK top 40, but its their song Does This Train Stop on Merseyside? which reduced John Peel to tears live on Radio 1 because of its connection with Liverpool, the city he loved, as well as being the centrepiece of Irish legends Christy Moores No.1 album Listen. Peles first 3 singles stormed the Radio 1 A-List with Megalomania reaching No.1 in the South Africa charts.
