BILLIE'S BACK WITH BIG WORLD TOUR
WHAT IT IS: St. Louis-native Jordan Ward is quickly emerging as one of music’s rising stars. With influences ranging from old-school funk, alternative rock and hip-hop, Ward’s debut album, FORWARD, elevates and expands the R&B genre and all its potential. Ward’s ascension from theater wunderkind to blossoming R&B contender has earned him spots on an array of lists like Rolling Stone’s “Best Albums of 2023 So Far,” Complex’s “Best Songs of 2023 (So Far)” and “20 R&B Artists to Watch in 2023,” and Okayplayer’s “Best Albums of 2023 So Far.” The 14-track album is executive produced by Lido, whose credits include Ariana Grande, Mariah Carey and Halsey, among others.
