 **■[ ALEX JORDAN](https://www.baltickiss.com/events/alex-jordan?ref=grandviewindependent.com)** at Baltic Kiss

Alex Jordan's Queen Kerosene is a melting pot of American roots music, stacked high with sharply-written songs that blur the boundaries between genre and generation. Helmed by four-time Grammy Awards-winning producer (and longtime Los Lobos member) Steve Berlin, it's a colorful, kaleidoscopic record whose songs make room for soul, Tex-Mex, groove-driven R&B, Americana, jazz, honky-tonk, and heartland rock & roll. "I love different tempos, different styles of music, different eras, and different artists," says Jordan, a Bay Area native whose eclectic career reflects his wide-ranging influences. "As a songwriter, there's where I'm coming from. I'm coming from a background that spans decades and genres, and Steve helped me boil that down into something specific." **Sunday, October 22, 2023, 8 p.m. - 11:55 p.m.**
