Acclaimed Country and Heartland Rock artist, Matt Jordan, has just dropped his latest single, “Greatest Story,” featuring a soulful duet with rising Nashville star Kayley Bishop. The track, penned by Jordan and Jarrett Hartness and masterfully produced by Grammy-Award nominated Sal Oliveri (known for his work with P!nk and Chris Stapleton), is the much-anticipated final release ahead of Jordan’s upcoming album, ‘Low Lights,’ scheduled to hit the airwaves on February 23, 2024.
In a captivating behind-the-scenes video, Matt Jordan shares the story of how the collaboration with Kayley Bishop, a notable participant from Season 15 of NBC’s The Voice, came to fruition. Jordan expresses his delight with the outcome of the song, stating, “The idea behind ‘Greatest Story’ is a love song about a love that never actually happened. It’s about a friendship that never had a chance to blossom into a romantic relationship and the haunting wonderment of what might have been if it had.”
With infectious enthusiasm, Jordan continues, “I’m thrilled to have Kayley on the single, and I’m proud of how it turned out. It’s probably my favorite single on the upcoming album.”
This poignant track joins an impressive lineup on ‘Low Lights,’ which includes hits like ‘Run Tonight,’ ‘Don’t Mean,’ ‘Steal Away the Night,’ ‘Steering Wheel,’ ‘Always A Girl,’ and ‘Anyone But Me.’ Each of these songs has garnered widespread acclaim and found a home on popular playlists, including Spotify’s Country Rocks, New Music Nashville, Next From Nashville, New Music Friday: Country, and Fresh Finds: Country, among others.

His previous album, released in three versions – The Gamble (October 2022); The Gamble – Deluxe Edition (February 2023); and The Gamble LIVE Edition (April 2023) – received critical acclaim. The standout single, ‘The Good Fight,’ climbed to #70 on the Music Row Chart and #26 on the CDX True Indie Chart, while ‘Wrangler’ even caught the attention of Jeep®, leading to the Official Music Video being featured on their social media.
