Writing and producing original music from the heart of the Northwest, Jordan draws on the region's rugged coastlines, wide-open spaces and unique way of life to create authentic, relatable songs.
A familiar face in the local music scene, Jordan brings a relaxed and welcoming acoustic sound that's perfectly suited to the atmosphere of the Sunset Food Markets. His performances celebrate the spirit of the community and the connection many locals share with this remarkable region.
