EXPECTING A MIRACLE
DERRIK JORDAN

Derrik Jordan's first full CD sees him playing a Stevie Wonder-influenced brand of pop-folk-soul music, which brought him to the public's attention as a singer and performer, though he has written songs for other top artists.

The album was given very enthusiastic reviews and paved the way for Derrik's later material and then his succesful ventures into world and world-fusion music with his Brazilliance and Superstring Theory projects (CDs available here).

review extracts:
"As heard on his first full-length CD, "Expecting A Miracle", Jordan plays a Stevie Wonder-influenced brand of pop-folk or 'blue-eyed' soul. Like Wonder, Jordan couches some pretty straightforwardly simplistic, positive messages in catchy R&B and Latin-influenced tunes, and he has the voice to pull them off. " -Seth Rogovoy, Berkshire Eagle
"...sit back, grab that special someone, light the candles...this is radio-ready rock that's done so well it's gonna topple the Michael Boltons and the Peter Ceteras. I wanted to hate it but it's just done too well." - Northeast Performer
