Info
Ian Prowse is a guitarist, singer-songwriter, and frontman of Amsterdam and previously the frontman of indie band Pele.
Raised on protest songs, influenced by the Celtic sounds that make Liverpool distinctive, and inspired by the songwriting craftsmanship of Paul Weller, Mike Scott, Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello, Ian’s 30-year songwriting career and committed live shows have gathered him a reputation as the ‘Scouse Springsteen’ amongst his fans.
Amsterdam saw success with their first single The Journey hitting the UK top 40, but it is 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 singer Christy Moore’s album Listen.
Pele’s first three singles reached the Radio 1 A-list, with Megalomania reaching no. 1 in the South Africa charts. Ian is fresh off his Fireworks 30 Tour with his band Amsterdam and appears as the support of choice for Elvis Costello, The Wonder Stuff and The Blow Monkeys.
Ian plays shows at The Brook in Southampton on 24/10/2026 with the full Amsterdam band, as a duo with the Fiddle of Fire or as a solo artist.
