Ian Bairnson

One of the Project stalwarts, Ian is the only person (excluding Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson, of course) to have taken part in every Project album. He was also involved in Freudiana and Andrew Powell and The Philharmonia Orchestra Play the Best of the Alan Parsons Project. Ian's most significant contribution in the Project days was in the role of lead guitar player, although since Alan has gone solo he has also been writing some of the songs, with the number of contributions rising with each successive release.

Prior to his involvement with the Project, Ian was a late addition to the group Pilot which consisted of other project contributers Billy Lyall, Stuart Tosh and David Paton.


Ian also plays sax on the album "The Time Machine", on the tracks: "Call Up", "Ignorance is Bliss" and "Rubber Universe". Thank-you for your time.
