Bio
Jordan Price is a guitarist, bassist, composer, producer, and music teacher in Sacramento, California. He is a founding member of the Reggae/Rock band The E-Regulars and the Progressive Metal band Bleak Machine.
Jordan’s love for music began in elementary school where he played saxophone in the school band. In high school, the heavy guitar sounds of Van Halen and Metallica inspired him to pick up guitar and bass. His background with both horns and rock instruments led to performing and writing for funk, ska, reggae, jazz, and rock ensembles.
Jordan holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Music from San Jose State University, where he studied jazz guitar, composition, music theory, and electro-acoustic music. While there, he performed with award-winning Choir and Afro-Latin Jazz Ensembles, premiered original electro-acoustic works, and co-taught the university’s beginning guitar class.
He has also studied recording arts at Diablo Valley College and privately with respected musicians including Mike Williams, Chris Lee, Glenn Letsch, and attended master classes with jazz legends John Stowell and Hristo Vitchev.
His versatile playing spans rock, metal, reggae, ska, funk, blues, and jazz. He currently performs throughout the Sacramento area with The E-Regulars, Bleak Machine, Symphonia Phonotone, and Lunar.
Teaching Philosophy
They encouraged my personal interests and gave me the knowledge and guidance to expand my creativity. Most importantly, they provided a broad musical foundation that allowed me to attend music school, form bands, tour internationally, and write and record my own music.
As a teacher, my goal is to provide each student with the same level of opportunity and personal attention. Playing guitar is my greatest passion, and I’m excited to share how it can foster creativity, build motivation, create community, and simply bring joy into your life.”
