About / Biography

The Ian KEL Experience

At the heart of The Ian KEL Experience is American vocalist Ian KEL — a powerhouse performer with unmatched vocal range, magnetic stage presence, and a rare ability to transform any event into an unforgettable experience.

Built around that energy, The Ian KEL Experience offers premium live music lineups and bespoke event solutions designed to elevate every occasion. Expect high-energy, world-class performances of pop, rock, soul, and modern hits — each one reimagined with style, sophistication, and undeniable crowd appeal.

Our core trio delivers an impressively rich, dynamic sound that rivals much larger bands, making us the perfect choice for corporate events, luxury weddings, private celebrations, and high-end venues where quality and impact matter.

We perform a wide range of music — from timeless classics and soulful anthems to contemporary chart-toppers — and can shape our setlist to suit any atmosphere: from upbeat party energy to elegant cocktail ambience or a full-scale headline show.

Beyond our signature live sets, we also offer:

  • 🎤 Elegant acoustic performances for ceremonies, dinners, and intimate gatherings

  • 🔁 Solo looping shows that blend live vocals, guitar, samples, and beats for a modern, genre-bending vibe

  • Bespoke shows and creative musical concepts, custom-curated for brand launches, festivals, and special events

Wherever your event takes place — from luxury resorts and corporate galas to private villas and iconic venues — we bring professionalism, versatility, and flawless execution that have made us a trusted choice across Europe, the Emirates, and beyond.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Minimum performance space: 4m x 3m (preferably a stage)
Clean supply of 220V power when using our sound system
For larger events, we’ll provide a full technical rider to the sound company. Our setup is extremely streamlined — we provide our own monitors and can set up quickly.


What information do you require about a venue?

We’ll need details about location, room size, parking, security, and load-in logistics so we can plan setup efficiently.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

We can supply our own sound system for events up to 75 guests, provided the event is within driving distance of Prague.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes. We can provide Spotify/background music before and between sets — or play a custom playlist provided by the client.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

We’ve been fortunate to perform in some truly unforgettable settings — from breathtaking medieval castles and luxury beach resorts to cutting-edge theatres and tropical open-air amphitheatres in places like Cyprus and Abu Dhabi. But honestly? The best venue is always the one packed with people ready to celebrate. That’s where the real magic happens.


What's your favourite type of event?

We love them all — but destination weddings and large corporate events hold a special place for us. There’s something electric about bringing people from different worlds together in a fresh setting and watching music break the ice, spark connections, and fuel the celebration.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started performing as a teenager and never stopped — over two decades and hundreds of shows later, music is still my heartbeat. I’ve performed across the U.S., throughout Europe, and even in the Emirates. Our current lineup has been playing together for over 10 years, and when I’m not on stage, I’m writing and producing music for TV and film — some of which you’ve probably already heard without knowing it. This isn’t a side gig — it’s a lifetime commitment.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

It’s impossible to pick just one. I grew up on classic rock, discovered hip-hop as a teenager, and fell in love with electronic music after moving to Europe. That broad musical DNA is what makes our shows so versatile — we can glide from ABBA to AC/DC to Adele without missing a beat, and it always feels authentic.


How does your experience offstage shape your music?

Our lives offstage give the band real depth and perspective. Ian lives and breathes music full-time — producing, composing, and performing — so every show is built on years of creative craft and stage experience. Jiri runs a growing marketing agency in Prague, which means he brings sharp strategy and an instinct for how to connect with an audience. And Martin, with a PhD in chemistry and a career in the energy sector, approaches music with precision and discipline. Together, those worlds collide on stage — creativity, business sense, and scientific focus — to deliver a show that’s not just entertaining, but exceptionally professional and deeply crafted.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We usually perform 2–3 sets of 45–60 minutes, but we’re flexible and tailor our format to suit your event. We generally require about 2 hours for setup and soundcheck, though we can be ready faster if needed.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Absolutely. We love outdoor shows — as long as there’s adequate protection from weather and a safe, stable performance area.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We pride ourselves on curating the perfect setlist for every crowd and occasion, but we’re happy to incorporate special requests or must-play songs with advance notice.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

We’re consistently praised for our high energy, polished sound, and crowd-igniting performances. Many clients tell us they’re amazed by the range and diversity of what we deliver — and how quickly we get people dancing.
