Jeremy Jordan

Born on September 19, 1973 in Hammond, Indiana, Jeremy Jordan, real name Donald Henson, is an American pop and R&B singer active mainly in the 1990s. He made a name for himself in 1993 with the release of his only studio album, Try My Love, on Giant Records. The album met with some success, thanks in particular to the single "The Right Kind of Love", which became a hit in the U.S., reaching #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 (#5 in Australia), and was also featured on the soundtrack to the TV series Beverly Hills, 90210. Two other tracks, "Wannagirl" (#28) and "Try My Love" (#72 in Australia), also met with moderate success. The album combines elements of new jack swing, R&B and teenage dance pop, typical of the 1990s sound. In Japan, the remix album Jeremy the Remix is released. Despite the visibility he gained at the time and a few TV and film appearances, notably in 1999's Never Been Kissed, Jeremy Jordan put his musical career on hold at the end of the 1990s. In 2013, he recorded a second self-produced album, Where Do We Go from Here, which was not officially released.
