\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIvor is an acoustic blues guitarist, singer and songwriter living the dream, walking in the footsteps of the American Blues Giants.\nMoving to New Orleans he has thrust himself into the daily life in the Deep South, absorbing all that this rich blues heritage has to offer.\nFor six years now he has been playing in the revered rooms of New Orleans, the jumpin\u2019 jukes of the Delta, and the seaside shacks\nof the gulf, setting himself to conquer the blues heartlands of the States of Louisiana and Mississippi.\n\u201cIvor Simpson Kennedy re-interprets Delta Blues so faith-fully you\u2019d swear he was a muddy footed native….In a drawl that sounds like his throat is clotted with Mississippi mud….S.K. floats through originals that sound like they were excavated from underneath the porch of some stilt house in the alluvial bottomlands….please, keep \u2018em coming.\u201d – Grant Britt, No Depression, The Journal of Roots Music, UK.<\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
