Voted “Best Keyboardist of All Time” (Music Radar Magazine), virtuoso musician/composer and keyboardist for Grammy-Award winning prog rock band Dream Theater, Jordan Rudess, will embark on a 2 month solo tour titled AN EVENING WITH JORDAN RUDESS this summer from June to August. Audiences can expect to spend this intimate evening with Jordan immersed in his musical virtuosity as he shares personal stories from his musical journey.  The tour kicks off on June 7th in Seattle, WA and concludes on Aug 6th in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

Playing many cities for the first time, along with a return to select markets, the show will feature the premiere of a new medley of Dream Theater songs created in collaboration with long time mentee and friend, Eren Basbug. Jordan will also be playing guitar live for the first time. 

A unique part of every show will see Jordan sharing some of his music technology that is part of his constant exploration into state of the art music tech.  Jordan will  be performing on GeoShred, the app he performs live on stage with Dream Theater, and will also show the audience some of the other musical apps he has helped to develop and maybe even a surprise instrument or two from his collection of keyboard instruments. 

Appearing solo for the first time in CO, MN, IL, OH, DC, CT, NC, TX, TN, GA and FL, Jordan will be performing “Bach to Rock”  which highlights his journey from a young Juilliard piano prodigy destined for a classical music career to a keyboard rock star phenomenon.
. 
At return locations such as Seattle, WA – Triple Door, Anapolis, MD – Rams Head, NYC – City Winery, Ardmore, PA – Ardmore Music Hall, Old Saybrook, CT – Katherine Hepburn Cultural Center, and Rockport, MA – Shalin Liu, Jordan will be presenting “A Road Home,” featuring solo piano covers of the music that has influenced him as well as his own compositions including some of the etudes for piano that he has composed recently for solo piano.

ABOUT JORDAN RUDESS
            Voted “Best Keyboardist of All Time” (Music Radar Magazine), Jordan Rudess is best known as the keyboardist/multi-instrumentalist extraordinaire for platinum-selling Grammy-Award winning prog rock band, Dream Theater. He trained at the world-renowned Juilliard School of Music, where he first studied as a child prodigy at age nine. As a teen, he defected to synthesizers in a classic act of rock ’n’ roll rebellion. In 1994, Keyboard readers voted him “best new talent,” and since then has become the universally acknowledged heir to the shredding throne of such prog-rock royalty as Keith Emerson and Rick Wakeman.  He is renowned for his unique fusion of classical technique and influences with rock sensibilities. 
           
In addition to playing in Dream Theater, Jordan has worked with a wide range of artists including David Bowie, Jan Hammer, Enrique Iglesias, the Paul Winter Consort, Annie Haslam, LMR, his side project with Tony Levin and Marco Minneman, Liquid Tension Experiment, Steven Wilson, Aviv Geffen, the Dixie Dregs, Rod Morgenstein, and Tony Williams, among others. Jordan’s interest in state-of-the-art keyboard controllers and music apps are another area of his career in which he has achieved success. Jordan owns the successful App development company Wizdom Music, creators of award-winning apps such as MorphWiz, SampleWiz, and Geo Synthesizer. Wizdom Music’s latest app, GeoShred, was created in collaboration with moForte, founding members of Stanford University’s Sondius team.
