Her 4th album is the story of a journey - with emotive vocal melodies that hint at Maori / Celtic / Hindu influences. "Her knack for capturing a mood or moving the listener to an emotion are almost uncanny."

Jordan Reyne has been a prominent "name" in the NZ music scene since the late '90s when she released "Birds Of Prey" on the Deepgrooves label. A 48 date tour of Secondary Schools in 1998 was one of the biggest of its kind and Jordan has been a finalist in NZ Music Awards (twice), bNet Awards and APRA Silver Scrolls. Jordan has released three albums over the past seven years and has been involved with Strawpeople, the Baxter Project and as part of the 'Lord Of The Rings' soundtrack crew.

"I'd be loath to categorize music this original. PJ Harvey springs to mind but the style is 100% Jordan's. Her vocals are astounding."
- The Mix (UK)

"Passenger", Jordan Reyne's 4th album is the story of a journey. It blends hip-hop style drum loops with the sounds of the trains, factories and aircraft. Add Jordan's emotive vocal melodies with hints of Maori / Celtic / Hindu influences and you realize that you have been drawn into an original work of art. Mainly written in Germany, Jordan's album is a challenging yet accessible album that is sure to gain her plaudits and sales internationally.

"Her knack for capturing a mood or moving the listener to an emotion are almost uncanny. It's not the kind of music that you can ignore or not feel. Passenger has an impressive organic feel throughout, which seems to be the heart and soul of the composer infusing all the elements that are used".
- Ania Glowacz (NZ Musician Magazine)

And Graham Reid's 4 Star Review in the NZ Herald:
"Reyne's Passenger is a conceptual piece - this is music and lyrics of disclocation. That's what Reyne does. And in an extraordinary way"
