Hi! My name is Ivana Céspedes Jordan, professionally known as Vi Jordan.
I'm a proud Cuban-Mexican artist with a “retro-funk, neo-soul"" style. I'm a studio vocalist with expertise performing as a soloist and group singer in latin, jazz, r&b, classical, funk and gospel genres in Los Angeles. When I was 5 years old, I started playing the piano, becoming a trained classical pianist, teacher and accompanist. Through my love for jazz and soul, I discovered my voice while touring with a competitive collegiate vocal jazz ensemble and eventually decided to pursue my career as a singer. My self-titled EP, “Vi Jordan” dropped in February 2022, following my viral YouTube video with members of Earth, Wind and Fire that recently hit 3 million views!
Amongst many other projects, I have appeared on Disney Channel, The Goldbergs ABC, I Can See Your Voice (winner Ep 7, S1!), a brand new feature film titled ""Knights of Swing"" where I play one of the lead female jazz singers, and have performed live at Grammy MusiCares behind Mavis Staples and Leon Bridges. I recently performed alongside Jean Smart on her award winning show ""Hacks"" and sang for Disney's biggest movie to date, ""Encanto."" Some other artists I've enjoyed singing with are Shoshana Bean, Crystal Starr and Adrienne Houghton.
When I'm not singing in studio, I am vocal coaching and mentoring new talent into the music industry on film sets, in recording studios and through my own virtual studio, Vocals By Vi. It is my ambition to promote musical integrity and excellence throughout my career, and to be the catalyst for other people, particularly Latina women, to thrive in their own musical careers.
