Performing at
Katie O'Brien's - Leicester

About this event

Join us at Katie O'Brien's Irish Tavern in Leicester for an unforgettable evening with ARIAN, the Kidderminster-based solo artist bringing his infectious energy and musical versatility to our stage. With a gift for looping pedals and an encyclopaedic knowledge of pop, rock, folk, funk and everything in between, ARIAN crafts a setlist that's part nostalgic journey, part irresistible singalong. From 70s classics to 00s chart hits and everything obscure in between, expect those delightful moments when a song sparks recognition before everyone cheerfully mangles the chorus together. Whether you're in the mood for an upbeat semi-acoustic rave or seeking the perfect romantic backdrop to your evening, this seasoned performer adapts effortlessly to any crowd. ARIAN's carefree stage presence and "I'll give anything a go" attitude have earned consistent praise from audiences wherever he plays. His musical style draws comparisons to the artistry of John Mayer and Zach Bryan, delivering laid-back charm with real musicianship. Come experience live music done right this weekend at Katie O'Brien's on Market Street. With our selection of Irish cocktails and vibrant atmosphere, you'll have the perfect setting for great company and a night of brilliant live entertainment. ARIAN is ready to make sure you leave with a smile on your face and those songs stuck in your head for days to come.

More Information

About the Artist

Experienced singer, songwriter and looper of pedals. Picture upbeat through easy-listening, romance or barn-dance, obscure to slightly-less-obscure chart hits from way back when. . . The songs that make you go 'hey, I remember that one!' before we all get the words wrong when the chorus comes around! Whether you're looking for endless energy of a semi-acoustic rave or a romantic background atmosphere, this seasoned performer with a carefree stage presence ALWAYS ends in good reviews. If I know it I'll play it and if I don't know it we'll give it a go anyway! If you're still not sold, I'll refer to my recent favourite comparisons: I regularly get told by my clients I remind them of a cross between John Mayer and Jon Butler, Zach Bryan & definitely NOT Bruce Springsteen. If this all sounds good, you should probably book me!
