Album Notes

JORDAN TYLER "SO FAR AWAY"

In the wake of the mainstream success of such acts as the Goo Goo Dolls, Dashboard Confessional, acoustic fronted Rock (indie rock, emo, punk, etc) is gaining much acceptance within the scene, and crossing over into the wider punk and hardcore subculture and audiences. Jordan Tyler comes from this realm of music and song writing, but sets himself apart with the range of influences he brings to the table.

Blazing from the streets of Portland Oregon, Jordan Tyler and his Band play the ultimate sentimental soundtrack. Mixing elements of Indie rock, pop, rock, and singer/ songwriter Jordan will bring you something that will catch your ear and take your mind and heart on a ride with it's stories of loves lost and loves gained, hurts and joys... Jordans lyrical approach gathers unto himself the love sick teenager, the hopeless romantic, and the soul searcher in us all.

Having been an active member in numerous punk bands since the age of seven Jordan has performed on stages from Portland, Oregon to Latvia (yes in Europe). Through the years Jordan has played just about every instrument, however, a few years ago Jordan eventually settled on the acoustic guitar, and has been following this passion ever since.

With this punk rock background in hand Jordan throws in various other influences from great American musicians like Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and the more current Elliot Smith. Take these varied influences and add in a healthy dose of commercial Pop to finish out the mix, and you have Jordan Tyler's debut, "So Far Away."
