Ian Tate is an American guitarist from California best known as the lead guitarist of [[Velocity]]. As son of the world famous guitarist William Tate, Ian had no need to seek out bands, Radical Nights had offered him a spot at the young age of seventeen. When Radical Nights met a tragic end, Ian was recruited to play for Stricken. His current role in Velocity came after he moved his family to Florida, leaving his older son, Jacob behind. He initially joined the band to soothe his itch to play again. Now living in Florida with his younger sons, Peter and William, Ian splits his time between band and family the best he can.

<blockquote>''Ian’s eyes moved to Sherry. “If you’re not sleepy, do you want to sit in the recliner? We can watch a movie with dinner.”
“That sounds good.” She grabbed his hand when he offered it. When he lifted her, she almost squealed. “I can walk.”
Ian frowned. “Don’t even try to pretend your body isn’t weak. I know you. I can see it.” He set her in the chair and extended the footrest. Then he leaned down and whispered in her ear, “I’m here for whatever you need. You’re my wife, and I love you.”
