Hello there & welcome to my blog!!

My name is Ione (eye-oh-nee) and as you can tell from the title of this blog I’m a singer-songwriter. I’m from Manchester, England and I’ve been wanting to start a blog for a long time, I’ve also been avoiding it for equally as long. Mainly because I didn’t know where to start and because I wanted amazingly edited pictures to go along with it that matched my brand etc etc.

However one of the things I have learned from a lot of successful people is to start where you are, so here I am. I don’t tend to do long captions on social media, so this blog is a space where I can delve deeper into the process of being a independent artist in 2020, and all that comes with it. It’s an exciting time to be an artist, the flood gates are open for anyone to make it, but also…the flood gates are open for anyone to make it. So how do I make myself stand out? Or should I just do my thing and slowly build a fanbase organically? ahhh!!

You’ve joined me at a very exciting time as I have just mastered my 3rd E.P, which I consider to be my 1st (this is a chat for another blog). And I’m also on tour with a musical called “Beautiful- The Carole King Musical” about the life of the amazing songwriter Carole King. Although it has been a long journey just to get to the point where I have a body of work I am very proud of to release, I know that the work and hopefully the fun has only just begun.

Stay tuned for the adventures :)

Love,

Ione.
