Janet Klein and bassist Marquis Howell, of the inimitable "Janet Klein and Her Parlor Boys,” along with Ian’s widow, Regina Whitcomb, will review the life and music of Altadena’s own Ian Whitcomb on the anniversary of his passing.
An alumnus of the British Invasion, with his 1965 song 
You Turn Me On
 
reaching #8 on the Billboard Top 100, Ian and his ukelele inspired others like Tiny Tim. He won a 1998 Grammy for his 
Titanic: Music Heard on The Fateful Voyage
. After invading America, Ian spent most of his life in Altadena as the grand master of folk accordion, ukulele, Ragtime, and other important early American styles. He served as Grand Marshal of the Doo-Dah Parade in 1999, was a regular “Parlor Boy,” and hosted the Ian Whitcomb show on internet radio until his passing in April 2020 from complications of a stroke. His wife, Regina, lost their home and Ian’s archive in the Eaton Fire this past month. We thought it was a great time to celebrate the life and work of this music preservationist and Pasadena/Altadena treasure! Expect to hear great Early Americana music while learning more about Ian’s life and work.
