Singer/songwriter Jordana Nye, aka Jordana, is known for her intimately cozy yet still danceable indie pop. She first garnered attention with her 2019 debut album, Classical Notions of Happiness. The Melvv-produced Something to Say to You arrived in 2021, followed by 2022’s Face the Wall, both of which found Jordana building upon her love of ’90s indie rock and continuing to hone her sound. She has also collaborated on singles, joining forces with Yot Club for 2023’s “Safe House” and Paul Cherry for 2024’s “My Idol,” lyrical collaborations that set the stage for the folky, ’60s and ’70s sunshine pop sound she embraced on 2024’s Lively Premonition. Hosted by the Wisconsin Union Directorate Music Committee.
