Jordan Harrison
Jordan Harrison (born 1994) is a country and pop music performer from Bremen. Harrison has been singing since she was 8, when she performed at Corner High School during a pageant. She has since performed at venues in Nashville and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee; Panama City, Florida; Dothan, Bay Minette, and locally at venues such as Children's Hospital, Homestead Hollow, and the Alabama Butterbean Festival.
Harrison's parents are teachers. Greg teaches at Corner High School and Darlene at Sumiton Elementary. Harrison has two sisters.
In 2006, Harrison recorded the song "Mary Kate", which was a poem written by Sherrie Robinson of Dora about Mary Kate Caudle, a 2-year-old girl who drowned in the family pool in 2004 in Tuscaloosa. Robinson had attempted to get Nashville artists to record the song, and found out about Jordan while looking at a car Greg Harrison was selling. Three months later, Jordan released the song on her debut album, Just Startin' Out. She released a second album, Made Ya' Look, in 2008.
