Jordan records music and performs live throughout North America. He has already performed as a drummer with the likes of Prince, Jeff Healey, Lucky Peterson, the legendary bluesman Pinetop Perkins, Kevin Breit, Burton Cummings and Jake Langley, to name but a few. In addition you will find Jordan on tour with a variety of great artists such as Cuban Harmonica virtuoso Carlos Del Junco, Canada's premier rhythm & blues band The Lincolns and Canadian blues guitar monster on the US ‘Chitlin Circuit’- Shawn Kellerman.After being awarded scholarships to prestigious schools at the Berklee College of Music and the University of Toronto, Jordan managed to escape Humber College where he had attempted music studies in voice and percussion.In tandem with dynamic guitarist Mike Branton, A sixteen year old Jordan John commenced singing behind the drums in his own band The Blues Angels, performing regularly in the Toronto area from 2002 to 2006. One auspicious night in a nightclub, Canadian guitar legend Freddy Keeler sat-in with the Blues Angels; Jordan was never the same. He swore from that moment on that he wanted to play the guitar just like Keeler.Only months later in late 2005, while away in California recording an album, Jordan was given a Fender Telecaster guitar as a gift from his employer and friend Stu Heydon.As of May 2007, this budding young entertainer has been fronting his own band captivating audiences with his voice and turning heads with his guitar and keyboard playing. His funky bass playing is strictly under wraps for now lest he nudge his famous father, Prakash John, out of a job.Jordan is presently working on a recording series with two world renowned recording producers, John Capek and Rob Fraboni, with sights on Europe and the USA......................................................... ............................................................ ........................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ..................................................... ............................................................ ............................................................ .....................................................
