Leading The TRiBE / Exploring NEPA's Music Scene / Jordan Ramirez | The Ryan Leckey Show | S 2 Ep. 9

HEY FAM! In this week's episode of The Ryan Leckey Show, I have the pleasure of sitting down with a very special guest and a key member of our Ryan Leckey Media family, Jordan Ramirez. Jordan, who also rocks the stage with his band "The TRiBE," takes us through his musical voyage, from his early days of songwriting to his inspirations and the leap of faith into performing live at the age of 24. Jordan shares how his wife was a pivotal force in encouraging him to showcase his talent in front of an audience. He opens up about his unique voice, highlighting the importance of originality in today's music scene. We also delve into the local music landscape, particularly how the respect and camaraderie among musicians have grown, especially in the aftermath of the pandemic. Drawing inspiration from a desire to complete projects, something he found overwhelming in his initial aspiration to become a novelist, Jordan has found his rhythm in music. His creative process is deeply influenced by the sounds of the '90s hip-hop, a genre known for its rich storytelling and powerful beats, elements that Jordan appreciates and incorporates into his work. A message of bravery and authenticity is a thread that runs through our conversation, underscored by stories of personal inspirations, like the influence of his uncle and my own experience releasing an album. Jordan's journey is not just a narrative about music; it's a story of growth, courage, and the transformative power of support and self-expression. As he continues to evolve both as an individual and an artist, Jordan is a testament to the impact of following one's passion and the beauty of sharing one's voice with the world. You can experience the magic of Jordan's music live with "The TRiBE" at the F.M. Kirby Center on April 12th. Be sure to grab your tickets and join in on an unforgettable musical experience.
