About Sass Jordan
Artist Biography
A raspy, powerful singer rooted in rock with a bent for the blues, Sass Jordan emerged as a promising hard rock hopeful at the dawn of the 1990s. Racine, her 1992 sophomore set, placed her within the ballpark of the Black Crowes, a muscular, appealing sound that was just starting to date due to the rise of alternative rock. Jordan was on the fringes of that revolution -- she gave her 1994 album Rats a harder edge and enlisted Taylor Hawkins as her drummer, before he played with either Alanis Morissette or Foo Fighters -- but soon chose to follow the path as a hard-working troubadour, buttressing her Canadian stardom through a six-season stint as a judge on Canadian Idol in the 2000s, then drifting in the direction of the blues -- a journey culminating in 2020's Rebel Moon Blues and its 2022 follow-up Bitches Blues.
