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.
November 2009 promises to be an eventful month as White's original song "September" will be released nationally on iTunes, Napster, Amazon, MSN and nearly 20 other major online MP3 retailers through a special all-digital multi-artist compilation of the hottest artists on MySpace, released with a hot new production company that has recently partnered up Sony Music/Red Distribution with proceeds benefiting the "Go-Green Initiative" movement for a better environment!
