At
the age of 14, the bass playing began. The interest in playing
the bass was immediate after realizing that he didn't know
any bass players and he figured it would be a pretty good
way to get into a band. He was right. The instrument was
a perfect fit. Jordan's original motivation to take the
musical path was his desire to play live music with a band.
Before actually knowing how to play bass, Jordan joined
a band. Covering tunes by The Who, Led Zeppelin and Rush
was became the best education a young musician could hope
for. Jordan's band mates became fast friends and musical
companions for the next five years. The group evolved in
many different forms over that time, experimenting in many
styles of music, eventually developing into a jazz quartet
who made a large impact on the local jazz scene. After graduating
high school, Jordan left the friendly confines the California's
Marin County, where he spent his first 18 years, and made
his way up to the wine country. A scholarship led him to
the jazz studies program at Sonoma State University where
he attended for two years. Jordan focused on writing and
arranging original music as well as recording with several
projects, ranging from jazz to rap, over the next several
years. After relocation to the Pacific Northwest, Jordan
connected with Kerosene Dream only months after his arrival.
He joined the established group "in stride" and began performing
with the band immediately.
