Show Notes
The day after Jordan Ward graduated from Parkway North High School in 2013, he moved west to Los Angeles to pursue a career in arts and entertainment. In the years since, Ward has performed as a dancer with Beyoncé, Janet Jackson and Justin Bieber. He’s also released two albums on his own. His latest project, “Backward,” was released in January through Interscope Records, and he’s currently headlining “The Apartment Tour” with 29 stops in North America and the United Kingdom. Hours before hitting the stage at his homecoming stop at Delmar Hall, Ward joined us to discuss his career, the evolution of his music and the importance of staying connected to St. Louis and its music scene.
