Jordan Mackampa prepares for a North American tour
The new album Welcome Home, Kid! sees Jordan come back to his love of R&B, soul, funk, and gospel with references to Dru Hill and Blackstreet, producing a new sound that nods to his earlier soundcloud works and the nostalgia of his childhood. It’s brazen and bold and presents an incredibly assured artist who is no longer afraid to show off their Blackness, queerness, or sexual expression in all their forms.
Getting to this place has taken Jordan decades of growth, patience & grueling lessons to reach this state and now he can stand in his Blackness proudly. This album tells the story of how he got to this place of self-worth and the stories of the varying complex but beautiful perspectives about the Black experience. He is open and honest about sex, intimacy, imposter syndrome, and how he navigates healthy love, toxic heartbreak, friendships, and forgiveness.
This April will see Jordan take to stages across the U.S. and Canada. Get your tickets below to catch his spellbinding live show where he will be performing songs from Welcome Home, Kid! for the first time.
