A caravan in the hills around Coorabell seems to have played a big part in the inspiration for a mythical cosmic country group known as the Family Jordan.
The label they are on was formed in a caravan in the Gold Coast hinterland during COVID lockdown, and the album
Big Grass also happens to be named after the caravan lead singer Jordan Rochfort was holed up in the Byron hinterland when he wrote the majority of the album’s songs.
Big Grass was produced by Rochfort and produced/mixed by Samuel Joseph (King Gizzard, Babe Rainbow and Stonefield), and mastered by Mikey Young.
