About Jordan Davis

Jordan Carl Wheeler Davis was born March 30, 1988 in Shreveport, Louisiana, the younger of two brothers in a family with deep country-music roots — his uncle is the songwriter Stan Paul Davis, who wrote Tracy Lawrence's "Today's Lonely Fool" and "Better Man, Better Off," and his older brother Jacob Davis is also a working Nashville country artist and songwriter. Davis grew up across northwest Louisiana, ran cross-country and played guitar through high school, and headed to Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge for a degree in environmental science with a focus on forestry. He worked briefly in that field after graduating before deciding the songs he had been writing on the side were worth a real push, and made the eight-hour drive up to Nashville in his mid-twenties to chase a publishing deal.

The Nashville build was steady rather than overnight. Davis signed a publishing arrangement, settled into the writers'-room circuit on Music Row, and worked his way toward a label deal at MCA Nashville in 2017. The first single, "Singles You Up," dropped that year and crossed onto country radio in 2018, climbing through the spring and topping the Billboard Country Airplay chart in May with a sound that married a fingerpicked acoustic-and-steel arrangement to a modern programmed-drum backbeat — a production choice that placed Davis squarely in the post-Sam-Hunt wave of country acts willing to absorb pop-and-R&B production texture without abandoning the genre's lyrical center. The full-length debut Home State followed in March 2018 and produced two further radio singles, "Take It from Me" and "Slow Dance in a Parking Lot," both of which became top-of-the-format records and confirmed that the first single wasn't a one-off. The 2020 EP Bluebird Days project and the EPs that bridged into the next album cycle kept the radio presence steady through the pandemic touring shutdown, and Davis used the off-the-road time to push deeper into the co-writing circuit — the work that would resurface as the 2021 single "Buy Dirt."

The breakthrough on the awards-circuit side came in 2021 with "Buy Dirt," a duet co-write with Luke Bryan released as the title track of a same-name EP. The song was written with Davis's brother Jacob Davis and the songwriters Matt Jenkins and Josh Jenkins, leaned on a plainspoken-advice lyric about land, family and legacy, and connected on country radio in a way few singles in the same period had. "Buy Dirt" hit No. 1 on Country Airplay, won Single of the Year and Song of the Year at the 2022 ACM Awards, was nominated for Best Country Duo/Group Performance at the 64th Grammy Awards, and re-cast Davis from a singles-chart act into a writer of substance. The 2023 full-length Bluebird Days arrived in February of that year as a sixteen-track double-EP-style record and led with "Next Thing You Know," which followed "Buy Dirt" to No. 1 on Country Airplay, broke through to streaming and pop-adjacent playlists in a way Davis's catalog hadn't before, and quickly settled into the rotation of go-to first-dance songs at country and country-adjacent weddings across North America. Subsequent singles from Bluebird Days extended the radio run and the touring footprint grew in step. He has continued to release through MCA Nashville and remains based in the Nashville area with his wife Kristen Davis and their family.
