Merseybeast is the title of Ian McNabb's third solo album after disbanding The Icicle Works. It is also the title of the first song on the album. The name is a play on the idea of the "Mersey Beat", a 1960s musical genre and movement. Merseybeast is also the title of Ian McNabb's autobiography, published in 2008. A second CD entitled 'North West Coast' was also released in limited quantities. The album peaked at No. 30 on the official UK charts.
