Hailing from Salt Lake City, the one man band Jordan devoid has been creating music for the past five years (both under the current moniker Selling The Ashes, and previously under the name devoid). By pooling his love for everything from classic industrial rock and goth club anthems to britrock and post-grunge, Jordan has begun creating a sonic landscape of which he is attempting to pioneer one song at a time.
From the aggressive gunfire bravado of "Bleed" to the open-letter-to-lost-love presented in "Sunset," Jordan is hoping not only to enrapture the listener with heartfelt lyrics and powerful music, but to take them on a journey through the world we know, as he sees it.
From the beginning stages of devoid, through the current STA releases, Jordan has long felt that something seemed out of place in the musical climate he was diving into. After reading The Future of the Music Business (Steve Gordon, 2005 Backbeat Books), it became clear to him he needed to take control of his visions by self-producing his debut record, devoid.
