With all of the stars that fill our sky, there are very few that shine as bright as The Ultrasound Festival’s latest artist, Alexis Jordan coming from across the pond, South Carolina, USA.

Jordan rose to fame as a contestant on the first season of ‘America’s Got Talent’ in 2006. After being eliminated from the show, she began to upload cover songs to YouTube, and these received millions of views. The exposure led Jordan to the attention of Norwegian production team Stargate and American rapper Jay-Z, who both went on to sign her to their label.

Alexis took over our radios in the last 12 months with her debut single, “Happiness”, reaching number one in Norway and the Netherlands, and also became a top-five hit in Australia and the United Kingdom. Jordan’s self-titled debut album was released on February 25, 2011 to great acclaim.
