It’s that time again, folks—time to dive into another absolute banger from the one and only Geordie Kieffer! I always get a rush of excitement when I sit down to write a review for Geordie’s music, and this time is no different.


After dropping unforgettable tracks like “Bad Boy” and “Lit Cig,” Geordie’s latest release, “Jesus Van,” takes things to a whole new level. If you thought he couldn’t outdo himself, buckle up, because this man doesn’t miss. With every song, he continues to redefine his sound, and I have to say, 2024 is definitely the year of Geordie Kieffer.


The Breakdown of Jesus Van:


“Hey pretty baby, wanna dance the line / With them cowboy dudes and them southern dimes…” — from the very first line, we’re transported into Geordie’s world. It’s gritty, reckless, and full of swagger. The song’s driving beat, laced with rock and outlaw country vibes, provides the perfect backdrop for Geordie’s cheeky, irreverent lyrics. Produced by Mitch The Devil (the name alone tells you it’s going to be fire) and Ian Kieffer, “Jesus Van” has a gritty, rebellious energy that grabs you and doesn’t let go.


The lyrics are nothing short of iconic: “I got Jesus in the back of my van” — like, come on! Who else would mix religious imagery with rock and roll debauchery in such an effortless, catchy way? This track feels like a wild road trip through the American South with a dash of divine intervention—guns on the dash, crosses on chests, and the audacity of a preacher who’s here to party. Geordie manages to make it sound so cool, so slick, that you can’t help but get lost in it.


The Sound & Production :


Mitch The Devil and Ian Kieffer’s production on this track is top-tier. The gritty guitars paired with the thumping bassline set a dark, electrifying mood. You feel the chaos and fun woven into the very fabric of the track. The music moves with a frenetic energy, matching the lyrics’ storytelling as we roll through scenes of wild adventures, defiance, and, of course, that unforgettable van.


Geordie’s delivery is both playful and commanding, and the chorus is infectious: “I got Jesus in the back of my van / He never judge me / He’s so above me…” It’s edgy, controversial, but ultimately so Geordie—a mix of humor, rebellion, and a deeper message hiding under the surface.


Lyrics That Pack a Punch :


One of the things that makes Geordie’s music so special is his ability to mix humor with deeper themes. On the surface, “Jesus Van” is an outrageous, fun song. But look a little closer, and you’ll see subtle jabs at authority and religion, mixed with a message of freedom and living life without judgment.


“We’re a long way from heaven, but we’re far from the fall / ‘Cause we’re built for the lovin’ and we’re here to cabal.” — these lyrics are layered, speaking to the idea of living fast, embracing pleasure, and not worrying too much about societal expectations. He’s preaching his own gospel, and honestly? It’s one I can get behind.


Geordie’s 2024 Tour & Upcoming Shows:


As many of you know, Geordie is currently on The Bad Girl Tour, and fans have been flocking to his sold-out shows across the country. This Friday, he’s performing in Toronto, which, unsurprisingly, is SOLD OUT, and then it’s on to New York on September 14th. But I’m most excited about his two shows in St. John’s, Newfoundland, on September 20th and 21st at the Rockhouse on George Street—both of which are SOLD OUT. I’ll be there on the 21st, and trust me, I cannot wait to experience Jesus Van live
