PRODUCER. VIOLINIST. SONGWRITER

Jordan Waré, a native New Yorker, was born in Manhattan's Upper West Side and raised by his mother, a songstress and father, a playwright, so a career in the arts was destined for Waré. His mother and mentor, Carol Maillard of the Grammy Award winning acappella ensemble Sweet Honey in the Rock, started him at just seven years old with classical violin training.

Honing his skills at such prestigious institutions as Julliard, Waré has played for the former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton, Jay-Z and Lebron James. He has also played with Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Gloria Estefan, Quincy Jones, and Wyclef Jean.

After graduating from Morehouse College in 2010, he returned to NYC and began transitioning from the strings to the production boards, where he displayed a knack for creating huge ballads with cinematic orchestration and booming percussion.

Upon moving to Los Angeles in 2014, he continued to further develop his production sound. In 2016, Waré achieved his greatest accolade co-producing the ballad that would become the multi-platinum hit record, "Where Are Ü Now," featuring Justin Bieber on Diplo and Skrillex's Jack Ü album, which won 2 Grammy Awards for Best Dance Recording and Best Dance Electronic Album. Waré has continued to hone his production and violin talents working with such artists as Brent Faiyaz, Alicia Keys, Chance The Rapper, NLE Choppa, Elley Duhé, Mereba, Baby Rose, LONR. and Dana Williams.

Jordan’s debut project “Traplin”, a lofi inspired violin instrumental project was released September 23rd, 2022!
