Ian Crichton has been iconic as the guitar hero of Saga throughout their 40+ year career. Now, he's got a new project with Robert Berry (3, Alliance) and Nigel Glockler (Saxon) called SiX BY SiX, bringing together their diverse influences into one sound as unique as you might expect with their debut album.
