Jordan Walker is a country music songwriter based in Nashville, TN. Growing up in the small town of Vernon, Texas, Jordan grabbed musical influences from wherever he could get them. His musical heroes include everyone from George Strait and Keith Whitley to pop sensations like Justin Timberlake and Rob Thomas.

 

 

From an early age, Jordan was on stage with a microphone in his hand. While he was in college in Wichita Falls, Texas around 2010, he put together a 4 piece band and toured all around Texas and the surrounding states. He organically grew a fan base that way opening for Texas artists like Wade Bowen, Randy Rogers and Josh Abbott Band. That eventually led to him falling in love with the art of songwriting and the idea of one day living in Nashville.

​

In February of 2012, he finally made the move. His dad and he loaded up a horse trailer full of clothes, 2 couches and a guitar and headed to Tennessee. Within his first 3 months of being in Nashville, Jordan met Johnny McGuire and formed the band Walker McGuire. WM toured the country extensively opening for artists such as Luke Combs, Luke Bryan, Kane Brown, Brooks and Dunn, Tim McGraw and many more over a 6 year span as well as headlining many venues and festivals along the way before the group disbanded in 2019.

 

Walker has been signed to Sony Music Publishing Nashville since November of 2019. He has songs recorded by multiple artists during his time in Music City including Luke Combs, Kane Brown, Cole Swindell, Cody Johnson, Jordan Davis, Chris Young, Trace Adkins, Drew Baldridge and many others. He is a co-writer on 3 top 10 singles, including two songs that reached the #1 spot on country radio.

 

The first was the multi-week chart topping single “When It Rains, It Pours” by Combs which has been certified by RIAA as a diamond single and the other #1 was “Backseat Driver” by Kane Brown. He also cowrote the current top 10 hit “Tough People” recorded by Drew Baldridge that is climbing the charts (as of June 2025).
