Meet Kayden Gordon

We were lucky to catch up with Kayden Gordon recently and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Kayden , thank you for joining us today and sharing your experiences and acquired wisdom with us. Burnout is a huge topic these days and so we’d love to kick things off by discussing your thoughts on overcoming or avoiding burnout
In the music industry, from juggling around promoting artists, running an online radio station, hosting a weekly syndicated program, and going to college, it is very easy to burnout. How I am able to overcome it is by keeping positive mindsets and telling myself that things will happen. Using these techniques help my confidence.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?
I am the host of “The Kayden Gordon Show, Today’s Best Country Mix ” I started out in radio at a young age at the age of fourteen, and have been striving in bringing his show to over 150 radio stations all over the world. I’ve always loved country music, and I’ve always listened to country radio stations, including (WKLB) Country 102.5 in Boston, MA. Two my favorite DJs at WKLB are Ayla Brown and Carolyn Kruse.

I found my passion for radio while listening to WKLB, and ventured out on Facebook internet radio groups to find out there is not an age limit to get started and work on my dreams!

“The Kayden Gordon Show Today’s Best Country Mix” is a 2 hour syndicated program playing the best country mix of today mixed into yesterday’s country. I also include many cool interviews with different people such as artists like Ayla Brown and Samantha Rae Whiskey-6 and actors like Havan Flores from Nickelodeon’s Danger Force, Kensington Tallman from Nickelodeon’s Drama Club and even bigger guests like Rich Fields from The Price Is Right and Ryan Phoung from CBS’s Young Sheldon and big country names such as Rayne Johnson, Parmalee and so many other people to join me! I recently began “The Country Minute with Kayden Gordon” where I cover country music news in one minute during his syndicated program.

I like to hang out with my dog Scout and go outside and go to different places, and also I like to watch TV in my free time outside of the radio world. I also enjoy spending time with his friends and family. I’ve also been featured in “Nashville Country Music Magazine”. I’ve also gotten up to 12K people on his website over the last year, I also have a good social following and I enjoy promoting independent artists.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Three qualities that I think I had, and you almost need to have in the music industry is kindness, respect and having a big heart. So many people are sadly not the greatest people and try to take advantage of artists, and I am in this industry to change that! In regard to skills, I am very good at technology, which gives me a chance to guide artists if they do not know their way around the computer, I tend to be very good at teaching!

Advice that I would give to folks who are early in the journey of music – I would say to keep your chin up, this is a VERY hard industry to break into, and you are going to have people that will bring you down and bring negativity and you just got to ignore people who bring negativity and bring in the positive people. Surround yourself with people that bring you good, not bad.

Okay, so before we go, is there anyone you’d like to shoutout for the role they’ve played in helping you develop the essential skills or overcome challenges along the way?
Many people! Specifically, my mother and grandmother have been a huge role growing up, but I also have many friends in the industry such as my radio friend John Graham who have all guided me through what I needed to get started in radio, and also music industry professionals such as music producer Bob McGilpin, talented singer-songwriter Beth Holli, John Krondes, Amy Jack, Kentucky Banchee, Christina & Elliot from Mission Road, Eric Diamond, the list just goes on and on!
