About Jordan

I’m a Canadian born, Brooklyn based guitarist, producer, and educator. My influences are vast, ranging from jazz, hip-hop, blues, folk, rock, funk, soul , gospel and electronic music. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Jazz Guitar Performance from McGill University. I’ve worked, toured, performed, written and recorded with numerous artists such as Lauryn Hill, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Jon Batiste, The Weeknd, NAS, Billy Porter, Quiñ, The Roots, Andra Day, Antonio Sanchez, Tony Allen, Femi Kuti, Darlene Love, Bokanté, Alex Clare, Renee Neufville, Becca Stevens, AHI, Vassy, Malika Tirolien, Elise Testone, Thana Alexa, Sarah Elizabeth Charles and Linda Briceno. I’ve been fortunate to on the Tonight Show, NPR Tiny Desks, Austin City Limits, The View, CBS This Morning, NBC’s Annual Christmas Tree Lighting and BET Black Girls Rock.

I have been teaching guitar for a number of years, to both beginners and advanced students.

I currently teach ZOOM lessons through a non profit called Musical Mentors, with a focus on reaching under privileged kids. Through this teaching opportunity, I've been able to refine my online teaching skills, with exercises, diagrams and various tips and pointers that I screen-share during my lessons to help enhance the learning experience.

The lesson plans varies depending on the student's current level and musical goals. The lessons can be focused on a particular style you are interested in, and will also incorporate basic theory knowledge which is essential in order to further advance you abilities. Here are some general things that I cover in lessons:

I like the variety of work I get to do as a professional musician. Touring, performing, producing, composing, teaching; these are all different facets of music, and each one fulfills me in a different way.

Throughout the years, mainly taking on private students through my social network.
