Soaring rhythms and a beautiful and bright sense of identity light up the lyrical Americana honesty and uplift The Great Lands to new heights – an aptly titled and boldly contemplative new project from Singer and Songwriter Jordan Armstrong.

Inspired by the likes of Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Son Volt, John Hiatt, and Bill Mallonee (just to name a few)  The Great Lands offers hints of familiarity, but ultimately presents a refreshingly genuine twist on classic songwriting. Fearless in topic and promising vulnerability to a deeply moving degree, balancing pensive contemplations with outright rock and roll vibrancy, The Great Lands inject a heartfelt touch of personal turmoil and musical brilliance alike into the contemporary Americana scene. 

Jordan has spent his life immersed in music. However, after the tragic loss of his mother in 2015, the weight of reality put the breaks on things for a while. Now backed by a clear desire to face and understand the complexities of human emotion, of loss and, ultimately, hope, The Great Lands provides a powerful outlet; an exhilarating and musically pristine look at expression and human depth alike. This is rock and roll with meaning, songs that connect, from an artist with a mighty sense of purpose and power to his sound.
