Matt's most recent recording is a smooth Jazz CD, "Matt
Jordan Featuring Kelli Sae."
Matt is a perfectionist, and will not participate in any project
unless everyone involved is also a perfectionist. While playing in
many upstate studios with other bands, he has preferred to do his
work at successful studios such as Electric Lady, Sigma Sound, and
Bearsville. He also uses the best support people he can find such as
Horace Ott, who arranged the Village People hits, and Ron St.
Germaine, engineer for such greats as Jimmy Hendrix. Matt achieved
his producing certification from Genya Revan Productions, school for
producers in New York City.
Matt made Billboard on a song, "Sometimes Love", written
for his band by Wells Kelly, Orleans drummer, ("Love Takes
Time," "Still The One," "Dance with Me,"
etc) together on the project in New York City. Michael Reinert, now
Sr. V.P. with Universal Records, was Matt's music attorney.
Unfortunately for Matt, Wells died in the middle of the project,
substituting for Meatloaf's drummer in England. (Click, "Wells
Kelly Movie" on the home page for more information.)
Matt has been recording the trumpet solos for Mercury Rev, a
successful recording and touring alternative rock group, with a jazz
feel. They had a recent hit in France on Sony Records, called
"Empire State" in which Matt played an extensive solo,
which was praised in Rolling Stone, and on the Internet, comparing
Matt to Miles Davis, Chet Baker, and Dizzy Gillespie.
He is quick in the studio, either sight reading music, or playing by
ear. Matt performed with Mecury Rev on a world wide Internet concert
tour of New York City under the Brooklyn Bridge. |
