Jordan Hunt

Jordan Hunt is a composer, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist. Classically trained at RNCM, RAM and RCM, and drawing on his experiences as violinist in art-pop orchestra The Irrepressibles, Canadian band The Hidden Cameras and as long-standing musical companion to Grammy-nominated Olivia Chaney, he creates vivid, emotive music, weaving melodic ‘sad pop’ and symphonic-inspired textures.

He is a co-founder of Principle Six and is Musical Director of the Theo Adams Company, recently collaborating as Associate Director of FKA twigs' Magdalene tour. His debut short film score for Theo Adams Company’s ‘Safety Curtain’ debuted on Channel 4. He has worked extensively in fashion, creating music for Alexander McQueen, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Halpern, Charles Jeffrey Loverboy and W Magazine.

His debut single ‘Mother’ was premiered on BBC Radio 6Music, and in March 2018 he self-released his debut EP Long Lost on 12” vinyl. In August 2020, he released his sophomore EP 'To the Ocean Floor', a mixture of contemporary classical piano instrumentals and song, originally commissioned by Sadler's Wells.

His early classical music is released on NMC, commissioned and performed by London Sinfonietta, BBC Philharmonic, Philharmonia, Hallé Youth Orchestra, Oliver Knussen and James Macmillan.
