Immersif et exubérant, Jordan Mackampa revient en 2024, enfin en paix avec lui-même et confiant dans ses productions en tant que chanteur et auteur-compositeur. Ayant développé depuis son enfance une grande curiosité musicale, Jordan s’est forgé une philosophie à laquelle il se tient encore aujourd’hui dans son approche musicale. Celle de développer des sonorités qui manquent au paysage musical contemporain. A cela s’ajoute la volonté de toujours travailler plus profondément son art, apprenant ainsi à la perfection la guitare et la batterie.
Après la publication de son deuxième EP « Tales From The Broken », Jordan signe avec le label alternatif AWAL, rejetant des offres lucratives des grands labels dans l’objectif de conserver l’autonomie qui lui tient à cœur. Tout cela conduit à un premier album instrumental, « Foreigner ». sur lequel la voix de Jordan se fait plus tempérée.
Son dernier album intitulé « Welcome Home, Kid! » invite ses fans à faire intimement connaissance avec l’homme déconstruit de 29 ans qu’il est devenu. Après avoir détaillé le contexte d’où il provient et pourquoi il présente quelques cicatrices émotionnelles qui sont maintenant soignées, Jordan dévoile complètement qui il est aujourd’hui à l’aube de la trentaine.Prêt à embrasser la force artistique qu’il représente sur scène, cette fois accompagné d’un full band et retrouvant lui-même ses instruments, Jordan manifeste pleinement une nouvelle facette de lui-même.

Textured, open, and studious Jordan Mackampa is immersive and exuberant finally at a place of comfortability in himself and his output as a singer and songwriter. Jordan’s aptitude for musical expression was inherited from his mother’s ear. Not a musician herself, she would often fill the rooms of Jordan’s London-based childhood home with a diet of anyone from Curtis Mayfield to Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, and Marvin Gaye, nourishing the ears of an inquisitive, infant Mackampa.
Jordan Mackampa utilised a self-proclaimed ethos that still remains present in his contemporary musical approach. “I want to create music that adds to what’s missing in the musical landscape”. After years of submerging himself in informal instrumental production, Jordan trusts his ear abundantly. It was around his latter-teen years that he decided to pursue music on his own terms, studying Popular Music Performance at Northampton.
Aptly titled WelcomeHome,Kid!, Jordan Mackampa intimately invites his emerging and existing fans to get acquainted with a 29-year-old deconstructed and at their most intimate on his sophomore album. Welcome Home, Kid! is quick to lean into Jordan’s second coming as an artist and is instantly bold in its canvassing of the new artist. After the context of where Jordan has come from and why he contained a few emotional scars that have now been attended to, Jordan wholly debuts who he is now as the dawn of his 30s approaches.
Beyond the contemporary Jordan Mackampa are nods towards who he’s becoming, not just as a person, but a force in the live arena. Ready to sometimes embrace his instrumentals again; this time accompanied by fuller bands and the assistance of the MckNasty’s of the world, Jordan also manifests a new character.
