Jordan Rakei
With a string of highly praised releases under his belt and a timeless soulful, jazz, and hip-hop-driven sound, Jordan Rakei, the 29-year-old multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and producer is a rare talent.
Born in a quiet town in New Zealand, Jordan moved to Australia at the age of three, spending most of his childhood in Brisbane. In 2014, his “Groove Curse” EP garnered strong support from North America and Europe, coaxing Jordan to make the 10,000-mile journey to live in London. He quickly made a name for himself in the UK lending vocals to Disclosure’s 2015 album “Caracal”. However, it was 2016’s self-released debut album “Cloak” that proved he was an artist ready and able to make huge waves with his own sound.
He went on to sign with independent label Ninja Tune, releasing his second LP “Wallflower” in 2017, followed by the single “Wildfire” a year later. Acclaimed by the likes of The FADER, Evening Standard, and Mixmag, it was voted as the #2 Album of the Year at Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Awards.
