Jordan Foley - The Growl of Americana

A Growl that You'll Never Forget

Jordan Foley is a singer-songwriter in the folk-Americana realm based in Orlando, Fl. Jordan packs a punch with his growling voice and heavy-hand acoustic rhythm and can be found playing all over the Central Florida area and beyond! 

Jordan’s music has been described by Creative Loafing as “a special brand of Americana for admires of bands like American Aquarium, Lucero and Ryan Bingham.

Jordan's debut album, Give to Get a Day, was released in 2018. The album includes originals like See You Letter and Clouds. In 2020 he also released originals ‘Sing me a Love song’ and ‘The thought of me and you’.

In 2022 Jordan, along with Tyler Hood formed Jordan Foley and the Wheelhouse. In 2023 they released a self titled EP  of wonderfully crafted original Americana songs produced by local legend Thomas Wynn. 

As well as touring on his own and with the band, Jordan has recently opened for The Wallflowers, Five for Fighting, JD McPherson, William Eliot Whitmore and Colby Acuff.
