Ian Little Author

Ian Little was found in a phonebox one or two days after his birth and adopted and raised by a loving family near Croydon in the southeast suburbs of London. He went to art school in Kingston-upon-Thames and initially became an architectural apprentice and worked with the band Supertramp on the staging of their Breakfast In America world tour. This led to working as a studio engineer on Roxy Music's swansong album Avalon, as well as putting out his own music under the name New Asia. With a growing reputation in music, he produced Duran Duran's biggest album Seven And The Ragged Tiger and the non-album smash Is There Something I Should Know. Following this, he produced an album by Sparks and worked with Belouise Some, but a spiral of addiction led to a long stint homeless in New York. His recent years have been spent recovering from poor physical health and is now back in London in the producer's chair. His memoir Baptism Of Fire (Astral Horizon Press, 2022) is his first book.
