GOOD LISTENING EVEN IN MY FORTIES
1 July, 2009
I FIRST SAW DAVID ON THE ITV "LOOSE WOMEN" SHOW WHILE I WAS ON HOLIDAY HAVING A BREAK FROM MY DIY.I THOUGHT IT WAS A V.GOOD FIRST SINGLE FROM SOMEBODY YOUNG IN THE BUSINESS SO WHEN I WAS BROWSING THE OFFERS SECTION AND CAME ACROSS HIS ALBUM I THOUGHT FOR 2.99 IT WAS WORTH GETTING AND I HAVE NOT BEEN DISAPPOINTED.I DON'T KNOW HOW SUCCESSFUL HIS SINGLE OR ALBUM WAS IN THE CHARTS BUT IT DESERVED TO DO WELL AND GOOD LOOK TO HIM IN THE FUTURE.

Jul 2007
A hugely talented singer and songwriter, and a natural live performer, David Jordan is putting a fresh and exciting new slant on British pop by incorporating searing rock guitars, throbbing party rhythms, memorable melodies and the spirit of "the greats" who inspired him as he was growing up (from James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Cab Calloway to Guns n' Roses, Prince and Lenny Kravitz). As his Trevor Horn-produced debut album suggests, he'll 'Set The Mood' for you a little...
The power of David's music stems from his vivid imagination: you can hear it in unfettered, boundary-breaking songs such as debut single 'Place In My Heart', where his aversion to society's petty rules and regulations is laid bare over a creamy, agile pop-soul backing that builds magnificently to a rocking crescendo; you can hear it in the touching lullaby 'Sweet Prince', where the arrival of his sister's first baby finds him contemplating the miracle of new life; and you can hear it as he runs through the gamut of joyous and painful emotions in the gospel-influenced ballad 'Only Living Soul' and the heavier, pulsating 'Sun Goes Down'.
'Set The Mood' is the debut album from London based singer/songwriter David Jordan. Produced and recorded by the legendary Trevor Horn (Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Pet Shop Boys) the album sees Jordan deliver an album of slick soulful rock similar in vein to Seal, Terrence Trent D'Arby and Prince. The single 'Place In My Heart' is also featured.
Ex-Starbucks employee Jordan's soulful singer-songwriter debut album was produced by the legendary Trevor Horn (Art of Noise, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, ABC, Seal), although he was initially talent spotted by his wife. A childhood acquaintance of Amy Winehouse, the Londoner's SET THE MOOD (2007) featured the effervescent UK top ten single "Sun Goes Down".
