17 and Old Enough To Try — Jordan Angel on First Crushes, Indie Pop & Finding His Sound
Loading player...
From GarageBand on an iPad at 6 years old to indie-pop on TikTok at 17.
I sat down with Johannesburg artist Jordan Angel to talk about his journey, going viral, getting encouragement from artists like Will Linley and Ben Rodrigues, and working with producer Aidin Nortje.
His new song “Old Enough To Try” is all about that nerve-wracking moment of working up the courage to talk to someone you like — inspired by meeting someone at a party and knowing he only had one night to try. Upbeat, dance-leaning, and super relatable.
