For over 20 years, Jordon has been writing, performing, and recording music. Jordon’s passion as a musician began at a young age and continues today through his current work and creative practice. Living across various regions of the South exposed Jordon to an eclectic mix of musical genres, from soulful blues and zydeco to cumbia and Houston hip-hop, significantly broadening his musical taste and appreciation of all musical styles. Jordon is a classical trained violinist. Along with violin, he plays guitar and bass. Jordon earned his B.A. in Music Marketing from the University of Texas at San Antonio and M.A. in Arts Leadership from the University of Houston. While pursuing his masters degree, Jordon performed in the Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra for four seasons.
While living in Houston, Texas, Jordon’s interest in producing electronic music and hip-hop beats lead him to the world of DJing. What started as a way to perform his own original music quickly evolved into a passion and creative outlet. Silky-smooth transitions and deepcut selections are a characteristic of Jordon’s DJ sets, and he draws his inspiration from the great Disco and House DJs of the 70’s and 80’s such as Ron Hardy and Frankie Knuckles. Under the artist name ProGhost, Jordon has released House and Techno music on independent record labels Growth in Decay, and Mystery Zone. Jordon curated the monthly Haunted City show for Shared Frequencies Radio, where he highlighted up and coming DJs and producers from the Gulf South. Before moving to Austin, Jordon was a longstanding resident DJ for Leeland House, a popular Saturday brunch restaurant, which is where he developed a skill for playing crowd pleasing sets that combine popular hits with lesser known musical gems. Currently, Jordon is based in Austin, Texas. He is in an active DJ and music producer. He recently contributed music to Meow Wolf Houston immersive art instillation. He continues to produce original music under the artist name ProGhost and is pursuing opportunities as a music composer for television, film and advertising.

As the manager of a bistro and bar in Houston, I had the pleasure of witnessing Jordon's incredible talent as a DJ every Saturday throughout 2023 during our brunch sets. His seamless mix of deep cuts, eclectic gems, and timeless classics set the perfect vibe for a memorable brunch experience. The atmosphere was electrifying, and his music selection kept everyone engaged and entertained throughout the entire set. I highly recommend Jordon for any event where you want to elevate the ambiance and create unforgettable moments.
