Years ago I started as a street musician.
Slowly I found myself on small stages, events and occasionally festivals as a singer song writer.
Now I have become a Troubadour, taking my songs everywhere I go, nonmatter the weather, the context, the stage, format or audience. The line between 'professional' and fanatic has disappeared as I sing my songs in cocreation with children or with my troubadour car on stage.
As a traveling Troubadour I get to spend time and songs with other amazing artists all the time and get the question; 'Where can I find that song? What is it called?' A LOT.
Surprise! Its my own song and you can listen to them live.
I'm a autodidact multidisciplinary musician and can not play covers on request for I never learned any. Yet on this page, you can order a song on request by making a donation.
Below you will find an archive of video's of me performing my songs with all kinds of great musicians. If you like one song, (prior recording 2023) or collaboration in particular, you can mention it in the comment and I'll do my very most best to include them in the studio recording session and get what they wish to have in return.
If you heard me play live, and want to figure out what song it was before you donate contact me through; ianmerkoulov@gmail.com
As a traveling Troubadour I do not prioritize refined studio recordings of my songs. They are alive and live within my heart fire ready to spark yours.
Yet I think this is a funny take on the idea of 'A song on request' as artists often get.

As an exchange for my Troubadour service and presents, I occationally receive a present from people. Eihter directly, by donation, or indirectly by putting it on the streets next to bulk trash so I can find is as a little retrun from the universe for my time and effort Biking everywhere with my Troubadour car.
Either way I am super grateful for the flow and exchange of value. For in the end money will be spend on music and creative tools anyhow.
Yet the instruments often have defects (witch in some cases is charming but often makes for a sound that go's better by the name; 'alarming').
Along my autodidact musical journey, I discover how to relate to more and more instrument types and would love to unlock even more.
For this I need help resorting.
If you'd love to hear me play one of these instruments through the streets or fields of the Netherlands (and Beyond) you can make a donation straight to my bank account, will be cached out and saved
in my restoration-savings-busking-case. This direct way of donation is for the simple reason that any crowdfunding portal will take a way a large percentage of your valuable donation.
