On November 23, 2024, Revolution Live came alive for rising star ian.

Kicking off the evening with "Never Stop," ian set the tone for a vibrant show filled with pulsating beats and heartfelt lyrics.

As the opening track faded, the artist smoothly transitioned into "AirBnB," showcasing not only his vocal range but also his knack for storytelling through music. The setlist, a carefully curated collection of tracks, featured fan-favorites like "Chauncey" and "Grand Slam," both of which highlighted ian's ability to fuse catchy hooks with thoughtful reflections. One of the standout moments of the night came with "Till I Die," where the synergy between ian and the audience was undeniable. The interplay was palpable; every pulse of the bass seemed to synchronize with the pounding hearts of his fans.
