Meet the Band

Ian Templeton

Back in 2015, Ian had a vision for the perfect pop sound, but when he couldn’t find the right group to bring it to life, he built it himself. Fuelled by a passion for infectious melodies and high-energy performances, Ian hand-picked the best talent around. By early 2016, the dream became a reality when the band hit the stage for their very first show. Since then, Ian has been the heartbeat of the group’s sound, effortlessly switching between rhythm and lead guitar. You can hear his smooth backing vocals rounding out those signature Pop Pickers harmonies. For Ian, it’s all about the music, the fans, and keeping the party going!
