Event Information

Thornton Hough Village Club presents Ian Prowse.

Ian Prowse’s journey in music began with indie band Pele back in 1991. The band signed to Polydor and promptly had a Number 1 hit in South Africa with ‘Megalomania’. The band’s relentless touring won them a huge cult live following, with multiple successful headline UK tours. They also opened for The Pogues and Del Amitri on their respective 1992 sold out tours. Along with their acclaim won on the road, Pele saw significant radio success, with their first four singles hitting the BBC Radio 1 playlist.

Ian then formed Amsterdam in 1999 - while the millennium was a slow start for the band, everything changed in 2005. Their classic hit ‘Does This Train Stop On Merseyside?’ had John Peel weeping live on air every time he played it, and the track was then covered by legend Christy Moore and taken to Number 1 in the Irish LP charts. Amsterdam signed to London independent label Beat Crazy, their first single cracking the top 40 at no.32.

In the last couple of years, Ian has been inducted into the Liverpool Legends Hall of Fame, sold out the 100 Club, and opened for Elvis Costello’s last three UK tours, along with shows with The Wonder Stuff, the Blow Monkeys and Damien Dempsey, adding constantly to his ever-expanding fan club. His last album was 2022’s One Hand on the Starry Plough.
