Ian Tambo’s vision is to raise awareness of Indigenous issues and connect with the audience through positive music and catchy lyrics and with an unforgettable live show. Best described as an indigenous soul funk band with a heavy influence of Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Donny Hathaway, Andrae Crouch.

Infectious melodies, thought provoking lyrics, deep groove, unforgettable hooks and the ability to engage a crowd within any venue or age.

His original compositions and productions have been likened to the classic soul sounds of Motown, Stax, and Atlantic record labels because of the captured raw emotion, vintage instrumentation, heartfelt lyrics and lush textures.

Ian has built a steady foundation of performances from International and National Festivals. Such notable festivals as; Fest Napuan – Port Villa -Vanuatu, St Kilda Music  Festival – Melbourne Food & Wine Festival , Survival Day Festival – Frankston,  Yalikit Willam Nargee Festival  – NAIDOC Ball –  Uluru Resort – Northern Territory and a whole list of local and interstate corporate functions, including invites from Pacific Nations, Asia Pacific,  South Africa and New Zealand.
