Singer/songwriter Jordan White has been playing lyrically-oriented acoustic & electric rock songs throughout the United States for the past five years, as a solo act and with KineticBlu. He has received warm responses from audiences and played shows on 90.3 WXLV FM including the "Phil Stahl Radio Show" - he has performed as far west as Chicago and as far south as Florida, and has been featured in various media outlets such as TV and magazine (go to www.press.jordanwhitemusic.com to view some of them) - he was also part of a group of musicians scattered across the country who came together to play benefit shows to aid those in need, such as the victims of the December 2004 Tsunami in south-east Asia and those suffering from Leukemia and other illnesses. White's song "Baby's Breath" landed on the 2005 Bamboo Bird records release entitled "Care Package" with sales benefitting the victims and their families.
A few of White's musical influences include songwriters such as Jackson Browne, Van Morrison, Adam Duritz, Billy Corgan, and Stephan Jenkins.
In 2005 White was in the second round of American Idol, in November 2005 he placed 2nd amongst 4 finalists in the Lehigh Valley/WZZO acoustic singer/songwriter competition, (see www.lvmusicscene.org )
In 2006 White was performing at the annual River Fusion festival in Bethlehem, PA when he caught the ear of Media Five Entertainment president David Sestak. Sestak, who gets the nod for discovering other multi-platinum selling artists from Pennsylvania such as Live, Fuel, and Breaking Benjamin, soon offered White an exclusive booking/promotion contract.
In 2007-2008 he performed up and down the east-coast of the U.S. in popular cover bands such as Impostar and The Fuzzy Bunny Slippers and performed original material with the Lehigh Valley band, KineticBlu. (www.myspace.com/KineticBlu)
In December 2008, White and KineticBlu were nominated in four categories in the 10th Annual Lehigh Valley Music Awards. White picked up two nominations alone for his song "Walking Clean" including "best original rock song" and "best lyrics" while KineticBlu was nominated for "best entertaining band" and "best original band." As of 2009 KineticBlu is on a hiatus while White has been playing shows with Brian Kibler (of KineticBlu) and vocalist Tara Crowe, under management by Dave Buhay in many venues across the tri-state area; but check back often as more projects are brewing.

The trick is to stay focused on what you want to happen and let go of what you do not... cuz if you keep seeing things as they are, convincing yourself that you "have to" because that's reality, then it will always be your reality. want to change? it's as simple as changing the who, what, how, why and when of what you look at and FOCUS on... DAILY :)
Hey Jordan How are things? I miss ya coming around but that is a far haul from were you are. I had help a friend move some furniture last week and I was up your way and then ened up in the mountains driving around we had a blast it was lots of fun, yeah I have been writing really mellow music lately just to get the idea of theory down. I got rid of a lot of my equipment typical give it away.And now I have my sound pretty much refined. I will be ready to start to play out when things in my life settle down,,,,LONG STORY,, which has opened a new door in my life
Take care and God Bless Double G Gregg from ObNoXiOuS CoLoRs
