Jordana is the final installment in GJ 10th Anniversary Series

It’s been 10 years since Grand Jury opened its doors. Over the past decade, we’ve been incredibly lucky to work with so many wonderful bands. We’ve been celebrating that luck this year with our 10th Anniversary Covers Project, which comes to a close today with Jordana’s version of “Charm You,” from Samia’s 2023 album Honey.

‘Charm You’ very quickly became my favorite song off of Samia’s album ‘Honey’. I’d listened to it on repeat all day, every day after it came out, so when Grand Jury asked me to pick a song to cover for the label compilation, I already knew my answer,” says Jordana.

Listen to her cover and all of the rest now here, or click through to the cover of your choice below. And while you’re at it, snag our limited edition 10th anniversary tee over on Bandcamp today – our 2024 Year End Sale wraps tonight at midnight, use code GJ2024 for 20% off anything in the shop!

Jordana’s Lively Premonition is out now

Lively Premonition is Jordana’s fourth album, but as usual it’s also her first. Her first in her new skin. Recorded over 2023 with Emmett Kai , Jordana sets up shop at the intersection of Laurel Canyon golden folk and Yacht Rock glitz and glitter with this new LP. After a move from NY to LA the evolution makes perfect sense.  Here final teaser for the album arrived earlier this week: “Raver Girl” showcases that 70s soft pop vibe perfectly. Like “Anything For You” before it, the video was directed by Justin Taylor Smith. Tune in next week for tour dates, and check out what press is saying about the album:

“Jordana is anything but a one-trick pony, and Lively Premonition sees her taking sonic risks that pay off tenfold.” – Line of Best Fit, 8/10

“Lively Premonition glows with self-discovery.” – Consequence

“A record that evokes the past in a blissfully optimistic future.” – Dork, 5/5

“Endlessly lyrical pop songs that shimmer at the edges with jazzy harmonies and a surprising number of disco-era bass grooves.” – All Music, 4.5/5

“Refitting the yacht rock and Laurel Canyon sounds of the ’70s and ’90s country for the modern bedroom-pop era, the songwriter’s willingness to experiment keeps her fourth LP interesting.” – FLOOD

“Jordana has never sounded so radiant.” – Consequence

The first pressing of Lively Premonition is available on serenity blue vinyl everywhere you get records & limited edition opaque blue vinyl is over on Bandcamp. Cassettes are also available on Bandcamp. Art by the wonderful Avia Lamm. Album art, tracklist and all order options available below.

Jordana’s latest Lively Premonition single, “Anything For You,” is out now

Anything For You” is the new single & music video from Jordana. A literal star-crossed love story brimming with astronaut cowgirl heartbreak. It was directed by Justin Taylor Smith. It follows “Like A Dog” & “We Get By,” the two previous singles released from Lively Premonition, due on October 18th. Like the songs that preceded it, “Anything For You” is Jordana stretching her creative wings and finding inspiration in Los Angeles in the form of Laurel Canyon folk and glitzy yacht rock. While this tune is more subdued than the upbeat numbers that came before it, the songwriting is every bit as accomplished.

The first pressing of Lively Premonition is available for pre-order now on serenity blue vinyl everywhere you get records & limited edition opaque blue vinyl over on Bandcamp. Tracklist and pre-order options available below.

Tracklist:

01 We Get By
02 Like A Dog

Jordana announces new album Lively Premonition

Today Jordana announces her new album, Lively Premonition. If you’ve been following the 23-year-old Maryland-born songwriter for long you know to expect the unexpected. When she dropped “We Get By” earlier this summer it hinted at a new direction, and today’s single “Like A Dog” all but confirms it. Having relocated to the Golden State in 2023, this is unequivocally Jordana’s LA record – sailing a glitter covered yacht right through Laurel Canyon.

“Like A Dog” lands today with a truly wonderful music video. Jordana reuintes with “We Get By” director Otium to transform herself into a literal dog (watch for the iphone screen cameo of her own pup Ducky) awaiting her hit-making mama’s return from a very cursed day in the studio.

The first pressing of Lively Premonition is available for pre-order now on serenity blue vinyl everywhere you get records & limited edition opaque blue vinyl over on Bandcamp. Album art, tracklist and pre-order options available below.

Lively Premonition Tracklist:

01 We Get By
02 Like A Dog
03 Heart You Hold
04 This Is How I Know
05 Multitudes of Mystery

08 Anything For You

Jordana returns with “We Get By”

“I don’t think I’ll ever settle on a specific sound. I’m just a chameleon.”

True words from our very own Jordana Nye. So it should come as no surprise that her thrilling new Emmett Kai-produced single, “We Get By,” is a rollicking golden folk epic sprinkled with shimmering yacht rock glitter. The standalone left-turn seemingly ushers in a new Laurel Canyon era for Jordana, who in between tours with Local Natives, Remi Wolf, TV Girl & Wallows, has been working on material with Kai since 2023. The Otium-directed video is a delight, cycling through vignettes of a day in the life of our violin-playing protagonist.

There’ll be more to share soon. Stay tuned.
