Jordan Rakei is our first ever Artist In Residence .
The role is the first in a series of new ‘in residence’ appointments, designed to enhance Abbey Road’s position as a house of creativity and build a wider community. Jordan will have access to the entire building including the fabled Studios Two and Three and the treasure trove of legendary Abbey Road gear, microphones and instruments. In addition, Jordan will have a dedicated writing room at his disposal.
Jordan will continue to foster his career-long spirit of collaboration by participating in some of Abbey Road’s outreach programmes and content series. These include the Lock-In filmed studio collaborations and writing camps, alongside Abbey Road’s educational and mentoring festivals Equalise and Amplify, which are designed to inform and inspire the next generation of creative talent. Jordan will also be part of the consultation and testing process for Abbey Road’s innovation work across Audiomovers and their music tech incubator programme, Abbey Road Red.
