Matt Jordan

He may not be much of a talker, but he’s got an awful lot to say. Matt Jordan may be a quiet guy in conversation but he more than makes up for it with his prolific storytelling through song. Described as having a “hint of Springsteen's restlessness and Petty's recklessness,” Jordan is coming off the release of his latest single, “Outskirts of Grace.” The introspective track is a personal one for the budding star. Matt explains: "It's a song about trying to navigate the real world - faith, family, dreams. It's a lot of thoughts wrapped into three minutes and 30 seconds and it means something new to me every time I sing it."

He has already garnered the attention of Sounds Like Nashville, American Songwriter and The Boot, but his humble roots began in the suburbs of St. Louis. Born to a family of singers, his parents raised him on the American classics, like Bruce Springsteen, Jackson Browne, and The Eagles, and those legends have had a major impact on his songwriting style.

After taking a few years away from the stage and studio to start a family, Jordan is diving headfirst back in. "Having kids changes everything," he says. "and having some time off, I was able to go back to the drawing board. We got a new band, built out a really great team, recorded some new tunes and are writing like never before." Inspired by the greats of Heartland, Matt is setting out to sing real songs about real life- no fluff or commercial nonsense. The kind of music that makes your heart beat.
