Modern rock rebels The Kyle Jordan Project just dropped a high-voltage, hard-hitting revival of The Clash’s iconic “London Calling”—and it hits like a riot in the streets. Gritty, urgent, and unflinchingly relevant, this isn’t your average tribute track. It’s a full-blown sonic reckoning.

Blending razor-wire guitar tones, thunder-crack drums, and a blistering vocal performance, The Kyle Jordan Project doesn’t just honor the punk classic—they inject it with 21st-century adrenaline. Their version channels the same anger and fire that made the original a global punk anthem, but through the lens of a world that’s arguably more chaotic than ever.

Kyle Jordan explains, “We didn’t want to just play it safe. We wanted to rip it open and show how alive this song still is. ‘London Calling’ isn’t stuck in the past—it’s a warning siren for right now.”

Fresh off the success of recent charting singles “Tall Blonde Honey” and “Bad,” the band continues to break barriers with this bold reimagining—delivering a modern rock gut-punch that feels both nostalgic and dangerously current.

Ready or not, the revolution just found its new soundtrack.

About

The Kyle Jordan Project is a modern rock band based in Victoria, B.C., Canada, delivering raw, fearless, and connected music. Officially formed in January 2025, the trio features Kyle Jordan May (background vocals, guitars, drums), Greg Van Kerkhof (lead vocals, bass), and Erick Gerber (vocals, guitars, synth). The band emerged from Kyle’s journey of resilience following a brain tumor diagnosis, with songwriting becoming a key outlet during recovery. Kyle connected with Greg, a progressive metal musician, who introduced Erick from the band Red Helen.

Their music blends modern rock influences, combining raw emotion and storytelling with the grit of bands like Royal Blood and The Glorious Sons. Their latest single, Demons, stayed on global radio charts for eight weeks, peaking at #7 on the Worldwide Rock Charts. Known for its haunting melodies and anthemic chorus, the track resonates deeply with themes of struggle and triumph.

Inspired by a wide array of genres—from blues and Americana to modern pop and progressive metal—the band cites influences like Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Killswitch Engage, and Billie Eilish. Proudly endorsed by Godin Guitars and signed to SODEH Records, The Kyle Jordan Project continues to push boundaries, crafting unique and powerful songs with plans for a 2026 tour.
