Getting error trying to insert ip address as string in mysql table

what is wrong with my code,

with connect_db() as conn:
    cursor = conn.cursor()
    stmt = """INSERT INTO ip_records ip_address VALUES (%s)"""
    try:
        cursor.execute(stmt, (ip))
    except mysql.connector.Error as err:
        print err
        return 

I am trying to insert ip address as string to mysql table. But I am getting this error:

1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'ip_address VALUES (192.168.11.111)' at line 1

You are missing the "" for the IP to be considered a string:

with connect_db() as conn:
    cursor = conn.cursor()
    stmt = """INSERT INTO ip_records (ip_address) VALUES (%s)"""
    try:
        cursor.execute(stmt, (ip,))
    except mysql.connector.Error as err:
        print err
        return 

EDIT You also need a coma to pass parameters as tuple (ip,)instead of (ip)

The actual errors were a syntax error (for not having brackets around (ip_address) and a python arguments error for not having the coma on the tuple (ip,).

The quotes were not necessary.
