He has performed for crowds of every size, from farmers' markets to bars, and corporate events. MoeDeLL is a prolific Americana songwriter. He plays the guitar and will captivate you with his unique voice and creative lyrics. He loved music as a kid and he started to learn to play the guitar at 9 years old. Listen to MoeDeLL’s song being featured today in the show, “Hoppin’ Trains”.

He writes great pop-rock songs that really cut to the heart. He has a good voice and a great chord structure. Every time he comes up with something new I am plugging in and listening, I have become a fan... He’s been on the dHarmic evolution twice. Let’s look back on the conversation where Jordan is describing some transitional period in his life which led to the recording of the track being featured today. The song is Jordan’s title track for his new EP, “High Road”.
