Sass Jordan's whiskey and cigarettes vocals drew immediate and inevitable comparisons to Janis Joplin, but Sass was not just a Janis for the 90's. Sass' plays ballsy, blues rock in the vain of The Black Crows, with an on stage fire to match. I remember "Make You A Believer", "If Your Gonna Love Me" & "Pissin' Down" being in heavy rotation on Detroit Radio. Sass still makes music and tours to this day, but also is a judge on Canadian Idol. She played the lead role in the hit Off Broadway production "Love Janis" based on the life of Miss Joplin, and played in Canadian productions of The Vagina Monologues. She has also won Billboard's Best Female Rock Vocalist award, recorded a duet with Joe Cocker, and had songs featured on Melrose Place, Party Of Five, Baywatch and Knightrider.
I was supposed to see this show with some friends but couldn't make it, of course my friends actually got backstage, Sass and the band signed autographs, posed for pictures and gave them free CD's.

Hey Dave,
ReplyDeleteJust caught Chris Shiflett with his solo band last night and had no idea his Foo Fighters band mate Taylor Hawkins played with Sass Jordan back in the 90's. Would love to hear this show that you miss seeing live, along with her NYC show if you can update the links to each when you get a chance. Thanks.
Links fixed.
