Colt and David sit down with artist and songwriter Jordan Harvey.  
Hailing from South Queensferry, a small town northwest of Edinburgh, Scotland, Jordan Harvey grew up in a working-class environment that also fostered a deep love for music. Harvey lived and breathed music - working in a local recording studio and attending Tech Music School in London, Jordan opened for Simple Minds as a member of the OK Social Club. This experience led to solo shows and an appearance on BBC One’s "Let It Shine," a popular UK singing competition.
Encouraged by his father to pursue his passion, Jordan moved to Nashville, where he initially couch-surfed and played the graveyard shift at some of the city’s most popular honky-tonks. His hard work paid off, landing him a record deal. He gained experience opening for Garth Brooks and performing on shows like "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," "The Late Late Show with James Corden," "TODAY," "The Kelly Clarkson Show," and the internationally acclaimed "Neighbours."
Harvey collaborates with some of Nashville’s best talents, crafting music rooted in Nashville songwriting but enriched with global influences and personal stories. As a multi-instrumentalist (piano, drums, guitar), Jordan’s natural charisma and stage presence shine through his upcoming tour dates and his storytelling.
