Jordi Baizan

Jordi Baizan is a first generation American and native Texan songwriter. He has played hundreds of shows in the US, Canada, and Europe and released his sixth record in February of 2022. His songwriting, which American Songwriter (USA) has called “exquisite”, has garnered him recognition from several prestigious songwriting competitions including the Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk Songwriting Competition, the Songwriter Serenade Competition, and the South Florida Folk Festival’s Singer/Songwriter Competition. Signed in 2019 by Berkalin Records, label owner Brian J. Kalinec says "Jordi's songs convey authenticity perfectly intertwined with memorable melodies. His unique voice and his stories draw you in from the beginning, and you can't wait to hear the next page.” Jordi’s 2019 album, Free and Fine, inspired Lonestar Time (Italy) to welcome Jordi “into the great family of true troubadours”. His latest album, The Love in You (2022), reached both the Folk DJ (USA) and Euro-Americana (Europe) charts at its release in February.

Oh such a special day for this miracle
You, little child, have come to give us hope
Tiny fingers, tiny toes
Mama’s eyes,  Papa’s nose
Like a seed you will grow, stretching up to the sky
There’s a skip in my heart and a tear in my eye
And I know the responsibility is great
‘Cause the world is redeemed
By the gift of your face 

Open all the windows
Let in the breeze 
Let the music of joy spill into the street
The birds in the big tree are singing along
The flowers they smile as they dance in the sun

Furaha ya siku ya kuzaliwa
My namesake.  My namesake
Furaha ya siku ya kuzaliwa
My namesake.  My namesake.  My namesake

Little one,  you’ve arrived with such mighty lungs
One day you will speak up for the voiceless ones
But, for now, I will tend to the flame, then I’ll pass it along
And the earth will resound with your birthday song

Furaha ya siku ya kuzaliwa
My namesake.  My namesake
Furaha ya siku ya kuzaliwa
My namesake.  My namesake.  
My namesake.  My namesake

Oh such a special day for this miracle 
Such a special day
