Big Star Recordings

Just announced this morning, newly formed, Big Star Recordings, the independent label run by Invictus Entertainment Group and distributed by Universal Music Canada, has signed Jordan McIntosh.

Getting an early start, Jordan McIntosh realized his innate talent by steamrolling into a debut public appearance in a Fourth Grade talent show and parlaying that into multiple contests and showcases.  As a result, he amassed a dedicated fan base and garnering an impressive catalog of accomplishments.

Still in his teens, this young heartthrob has been busy.  With an ever growing list of singles on the charts McIntosh blew fans away in late 2013 with a cover of Lil’ Wayne’s smash hit, How to Love, gathering several hundred thousand views.  He also made his acting debut in the holiday film, Coming Home for Christmas and is confirmed to open Coast to Coast on the Young Guns tour with Brett Kissel and One More Girl later this Spring.

“I’m very excited to be joining the Big Star family and work with them to further my career!  Jim Cressman is a class-act, and has what it takes to make my dreams come true even more than they already are.  I can’t wait to see what the future has to offer for myself and Big Star.” says Jordan McIntosh.

“Jordan is one of the most dynamic young performers in the business.  Combine his abilities with his charisma and there’s a bankable star in the making.” says Big Star Recording’s Jim Cressman

McIntosh is due to release his debut Big Star Recordings release in June 2014 and new singles will be out at Country Radio across Canada later in the spring.
