Biography

Born in Montreal in 1954, Ferrier performed numerous shows mixing poetry in Canada and the United States.[2] In 2000, he published his first book-CD, titled Exploding Head Man with Шаблон:Ill. The publication was a success and resulted in multiple performances combining narration, electric guitar, saxophone, and vocals.[3] For many of his recordings, he collaborated with his band Pharmakon MTL, of which he was a guitarist.[4]

Ferrier was the founder of the record label Wired on Words, dedicated to literary performance.[3] There, he published his first youth audiobook, titled A Child Sees Winter Coming and a Bear Dreams.[2] He also founded the online magazine LitLive.ca, the Mile End Poets’ Festival, and the Words & Music Show, which won a Standard Broadcasting Award in its first year.[5] Involved with the English-speaking world, he organized "spoken words shows" at the Casa del Popolo every month. He was also a choreographer, playing live music for dance shows.[6]

In 2008 and 2011, Ferrier won the Prix Golden Beret for his work in the spoken word community.[7] He worked as a consulting writer for Concordia University because of his expertise in literary performance.[5] In 2017, a translation of his poems was published by Éditions du Noroît under the title Quel est ce lieu.[8] He was also a former president of the Quebec Writers' Federation.[5]

Ian Ferrier died on 3 November 2023.[9]
