Jordan Hastings

Jordan Hastings, born on March fifteenth, nineteen eighty-two, is a talented Canadian drummer hailing from Hamilton, Ontario. He is best recognized for his role as the drummer of the post-hardcore band Alexisonfire, where he initially joined as a temporary replacement for Jesse Ingelevics. However, his impressive skills quickly earned him a permanent spot in the band after just two months, marking his debut on the album 'Crisis' in two thousand six.

Before his time with Alexisonfire, Hastings showcased his drumming prowess in several Burlington-based bands, including Jersey, Chapter One, and Hoodrat, all of which are no longer active. Currently, he is a member of the band Cunter, continuing to contribute to the vibrant Canadian music scene.

In two thousand eleven, Hastings co-founded Dine Alone Foods, a side project of Dine Alone Records, alongside Joel Carriere. He also ventured into entrepreneurship by co-founding the Village Cigar Company and Barbershop in Burlington, Ontario, in mid-two thousand twelve, although he sold his share in the business the following year.

Hastings is also known for his work with the trio Say Yes, which features guitarist and vocalist Adam Michael and bassist and vocalist Michael Zane. The band released their self-titled debut EP on August nineteenth, two thousand fourteen, under Dine Alone Records. In January two thousand sixteen, he stepped in for Aaron Solowoniuk of Billy Talent, who was unable to perform due to a multiple sclerosis relapse. Hastings recorded the drums for their album 'Afraid of Heights,' released in July two thousand sixteen, and continued to tour with the band, contributing to their latest album, 'Crisis of Faith.'
