JORDIE LANE

Named in The Age’s top 100 influential people of 2009, Melbourne’s Jordie Lane is becoming recognised nation-wide as one of our great song-writing talents. After releasing his highly acclaimed debut album Sleeping Patterns in June 09, Jordie has gone on to sell out album launches across the country, appear on ABC TV’s Spicks and Specks, and play shows alongside artists such as Cat Power, Charlie Parr, Old Crow Medicine Show and local legends Clare Bowditch, Ross Wilson and Tex Perkins. Lauded as one of the most remarkable debut releases from a local musician, Sleeping Patterns was co-produced by Jeff Lang and Tim Hall and had been brewing in the subconscious of Jordie’s mind for four years. It was named Album of the Week on 3RRR, Radio Adelaide, ABC Sydney and ABC Radio National and DIG, and it was also nominated for The Age EG “Best Album” Award for 2009.
