Music Series: Country and Rock by Matt Jordan
Join us for a stripped-down set from heartland country and rock singer-songwriter, Matt Jordan. Matt and his Saint Louis-based band will play an intimate set of original songs they don’t usually play on the road, along with a few covers of songs that have influenced Matt in his songwriting journey.
Born, raised, and based in Saint Louis, Matt Jordan is a heartland rock singer-songwriter who has found his home in country music.
