Americana Singer/songwriter from central MN. From the depths of his midwestern roots, Messerole masterfully blends the sounds of his guitar with engaging lyrics, and often a harmonica, to tell gritty American tales that are bound to evoke emotion from all of his listeners. The motifs of his songs can vary as greatly as the wild flowers in the native tall grass. Messerole does frequently write about that flora, as well as the fauna of the region. Not to mention all of it's wild life. Not one to shy away from subject matter, the songs can frequently meander across the lines between love and loss, success and failure, or life and death. Jordan has garnered awards and distinctions that have landed him in the same company as John Prine, Jason Isbell, and John Hiatt. Fans of the aforementioned artists will find satisfaction in his songs as well. Messerole is happy to share his original folk, blues, and alternative country music that's cultivated right here in the heart of the Great Plains.

Tapers notes: Recording 6 of 13 from Muskie Days 2026. Day 2 of Muskie Days began with a great singer-songwriter, Jordan Messerole. I hadn't heard the name before, but I really enjoyed his music and lyrics. As soon as I heard his voice, it reminded me of Canadian musician William Prince, and I loved it immediately. If you aren't familiar with Jordan, I would definitely recommend looking his music up on any streaming site.
