Jordan Zevon

Jordan Zevon (born August 7, 1969) is an American singer, musician and songwriter. He is the son of rock musician Warren Zevon and Marilyn Livingston Dillow. Following his father's death in 2003, Jordan, his half-sister, Ariel, and longtime Zevon collaborator Jorge Calderón accepted Warren's two posthumous "Grammy Awards for Best Rock Vocal Performance and Best Contemporary Folk Album".

He appeared on the 2004 tribute album to his father titled Enjoy Every Sandwich: Songs of Warren Zevon singing the previously unreleased song "Studebaker". In 2005 he appeared on another tribute album called Hurry Home Early: the Songs of Warren Zevon where he sang another unreleased song called "Warm Rain" with Simone Stevens. He has also allowed for the donation of many collections of live Warren Zevon recordings to be freely listened to and redistributed from the Internet Archive, including the previously widely bootlegged The Offender Meets the Pretender. Jordan has also produced several films including the motion picture $pent (2000).

In 2005, he released his self-titled debut extended play album through his production company Mixed Headache. His first full length album, Insides Out, was released through Texas-based New West Records on April 15, 2008. The album won him a place in the USA Songwriting Competition.

On June 7 he appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman (Letterman being an old family friend) and again on April 18, 2008.
