JOE’s Song Of The Day #742 – Jack O’Rourke ‘Ivory Towers’

Eric Lalor

Jack O’Rourke roars back with another release from his new EP.

Jack O’Rourke has released the title track from his recent EP, Ivory Towers. It’s a follow up to the first release, ‘Myth’, which gained plenty of airtime on Irish radio and plenty of critical acclaim last summer.

‘Ivory Towers’ is a feel good pop-rock ballad and Jack O’Rourke has a bit of pedigree on that score.

One of his previous singles, ‘Silence’, was not only chosen as the anthem for the Yes Equality Campaign, but it also won the prestigious first place prize in the International Songwriting Competition, judged by Tom Waits and Bill Withers amongst others, and was performed live on The Late Late Show.

There is a maturity to Jack’s voice which lends itself well to this type of song. He’s obviously a very talented artist and one to keep an eye on for sure.
