Mississippi Bound

Mississippi Bound is the much anticipated third release from Australian songwriter Ivor S.K. Following on from 2017’s critically acclaimed Montserrat, Mississippi Bound - Ivor’s first output since relocating to New Orleans - is a fifteen track roots odyssey. Created over a year of pandemic induced down time, Mississippi Bound is another portal into Ivor’s artistic vision; more cold cuts of unfiltered songwriting laced with trademark dark humor. Having marinated in his new homeland for five years, Ivor has fresh tales to tell and some new weaponry to aid in the plots; cigar box guitar makes its maiden appearance. With songs honed on the highways and pockmarked rooms between Louisiana and Mississippi, and strained through the maw of Big Easy grease, this album marks a new stage in Ivor’s ascent as a songwriter and musician.
