Luke Jordan (January 28, 1892 – June 25, 1952) was a blues guitarist and vocalist of some renown in his local area of Lynchburg, Virginia.

Born in Appomattox County, Virginia, United States, his professional career started at age 35, when he was noticed by Victor Records, and went to Charlotte, North Carolina in 1927 to record several records. These records sold moderately well, and Victor decided to take Jordan to New York in 1929, for two more sessions. He recorded very few known tracks in his career, but a few remain intact.
