Ian George Brown, an English singer and multi-instrumentalist, gained prominence as the frontman of the alternative rock band The Stone Roses. Following the group’s disbandment in 1996, he pursued a fruitful solo career, producing seven studio albums, such as his debut “Unfinished Monkey Business” and the more recent “Ripples.” Brown has also found chart success with tracks like “F.E.A.R.” and “Dolphins Were Monkeys.” Among his notable accomplishments are performances at Glastonbury Festival, a collaboration with UNKLE, and a cameo in the film Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. In 2022, he set out on his first solo headline tour in over ten years.

However, Brown has also been involved in several controversies, including testifying in a sex offenses trial and upsetting fans by performing a sold-out show without a band in 2023. He previously faced legal issues in 1998 when he received a four-month prison sentence for an altercation with an airline employee. Despite these incidents, Ian Brown continues to be a significant figure in British rock music, having been the lead vocalist of The Stone Roses since their inception in 1983.
