HEATHER JEAN JORDAN, voice
Heather Jean Jordan is a singer-songwriter based in Banff, AB. Operatic vocals and folk sensibilities meet in this talented chanteuse.
A gifted and versatile performer, Heather Jean performs mainly original music drawing from a wide range of influences and genres. Her music is the tune you wake up whistling, the tall tale told by a crackling fire, the sweet song of a meadowlark on a clear summer's day. Seeking new depths in the folk genre, Heather Jean finds her inspiration in the landscape, creatures, and humans of this land, spinning stories and songs that reflect the innate worthiness, beauty, and humour of our inner and outer being. She has been performing, teaching and leading musical experiences across the prairies for over a decade.
Heather Jean's debut album 'Some Dappled Night,' was released in fall 2023. Centered around the stories we tell ourselves, mythic themes meld with earthly concerns in this nocturnal exploration of our place in the family of things. Soaring vocals, delicate ukulele, and supernatural keys - think 60's Judy Collins meets David Lynch.
