[edit] Music

The band's members are singer/songwriter Annemie Coenen, Peter Luts and David Vervoort, with producers Christophe Chantzis and Erik Vanspauwen. Luts and Vervoort have also worked with the trance group Lasgo. Coenen said in an interview with Mixmag that their name is the Belgian equivalent of Joe Bloggs. Ian van Dahl is best known for the 2001 summer hit "Castles in the Sky", which charted highly across Europe. The song was originally sung by Marsha.

Ian Van Dahl scored international hits with "Will I?", "Try", "Reason", "Believe", "Where Are You Now?", "I Can't Let You Go", "Secret Love", and "Inspiration". Ian Van Dahl's sophomore album, "Lost & Found" featured songs with deeper, more melancholy sounds. The album proved that dance heavy music can be serious and thought provoking. "Where Are You Now?" and "Inspiration", the only song on the album that shimmered with hope in its lyrics became massive dance chart and radio hits. Ian Van Dahl's Stateside fanbase expanded due to the people who could relate to the stories the songs on the album told.

Their most recent singles are "Movin' On", which was released in December 2005, and "Just a Girl", which was released in July 2006.

The band is expected to release their 3rd full length album in 2007. The album remains untitled as of now.
