Young three-piece IAN hail from Boston, but the past couple of months they have been trying Los Angeles on for size, and why not? They make giddy, lo-fi power-pop that’s a perfect fit for the Burger/Lollipop Records scene, and then there’s that part about East Coast winters. Anyway, the trio of Jilian Medford, Tim Cheney and Damien Scalise released a self-titled EP in August, and to use a Beantown reference, it’s not hard to imagine some of these songs (like “I Don’t Care”) as Blake Babies demos. Enjoy your stay in L.A., guys.

||| Stream: “If You’re Cryin” and “I Don’t Care”

||| Live: IAN play tonight at Lot 1 Cafe, along with Lords of Venus, FRNCH CNT and Cigarette Barbies, and Saturday at the Bootleg as part of “Bubble Gum Punk – Ladies Night,” with Feels, Winter and French Vanilla.
