Bio
Jordan Dyer is a charismatic singer and keyboardist from Charleston, WV. Raised in a musical environment, he began performing early, leading the church choir by age 13 after learning to read music and play piano at 8. Jordan cut his teeth in Charleston's vibrant music scene, sneaking into bars at 18 to perform with rock 'n' roll and country bands, and spending many studio hours in Sissonville with Aaron Fisher at Fishbowl Recording studio. His older cousin and mentor Mark Price, a well established and talented Charleston Artist, then decided Jordan was ready to start performing with him. Jordan became a Grooveheavy fill in before the cousins, along with Mike Davis & Tajae Mosley established FOURCHILL in 2022.
tJordan continued to broaden his horizons as a performer and bandmate, spending years in the Mark Miller Band, Qiet, Aaron Fisher & Ghost Fleet, Holly Forbes, SHINE, Hot Jazz of Charleston, Cariño, etc, all while contiuing faithful weekly service at St. Paul AME church. It wasn't until late 2023 that he established his own trio, hoping to find his own personal voice and sound. Since then they have become a Charleston staple, opening for Landau Eugene Murphy Jr's “Home for the Holidays” tour, playing Charleston's Wine & Jazz Festival, & establishing a ‘Jazz Tuesday’ residency at the burgeoning ROQ, alongside the world-class Bob Thompson Unit.
His music is a rich tapestry woven from gospel, soul, jazz, funk, R&B, rock 'n' roll, and blues, reflecting his deep-rooted connection to his upbringing. Influenced by icons like Prince, D'Angelo, Ray Charles, Robert Glasper, Thelonious Monk, Corey Henry, Toto, Phil Collins, Jacob Collier, and George Duke, Jordan's style is a dynamic fusion that prioritizes groove, improvisation, and genre experimentation.
