Ian Maksin has created his own unique style by blending elements of different genres and traditional music from around the globe in a new way using his cello as the main unifying force. He uses the loop pedal and other electronic devices to augment the sound of the cello and turn it into an entire string orchestra. He writes original music, inspired by traditional music from Mongolia, West Africa, Balkans, and the Middle East, and sings pop and traditional songs from around the globe in nearly 40 languages and writes his own original songs in at least four languages.
