Born into a family wher his Mother supplemented the family income by singing and playing the piano in clubs and pubs, his father worked as a truck driver and had a love of country music and his two great uncles had a “Hill Billy” band Ivor’s early life was filled with music.
He was caught up in the great Rock ‘n’ Roll and Skiffle era in the late 50’s and with some school pals formed a skiffle group which flourished and developed over ten years carrying him into the “swinging 60’s.
His life as a musician continued until the early 90’s when he turned his love of country music into a reality and struck out as a sol artiste.
Ivor’s act features many of his own songs with accompaniment of some self-made backing tracks together with his own performance on guitar, bass and keyboards. He provides a mixture of modern and more traditional country music with a sprinkling of humour for added flavour
A well established and well known sol country music artiste performing a mixture of modern and more traditional country music with a sprinkling of humour.
PARTIAL SONG LISTING
If tomorrow never comes
Sally was a good ol’ girl
Don’t close your eyes
I just wanna dance with you
Lane of enchantment
You’re my best friend
Here in the real world
He’ll have to go
Thoughts of home
Seeing my father in me
Nobody knows it but me
I sang Dixie
Cowboy’s Don’t cry
Hello dalrin@
I told you no a thousand times
No place to hide
Livin’ on love
The year that Clayton Delaney died
Rollin’
For reasons I’ve forgotten
Tequila sunrise
Close up the Honky Tonk
Where did the freight trains go
After all those years
Your cheatin’ heart
Singin’ the blues
Roll in my sweet baby’s arms
