Sass Jordan, the singer-songwriter who became a significant success in Canada’s rock scene in the 1990s before starring as a judge on Canadian Idol, has died aged 65.

No cause of death has been given. A statement on social media said she died on 2 October “surrounded by her loving family … She remains in our hearts, an inimitable force of nature. An irreplaceable being of light and joy!”

Born in Birmingham, England, in 1960, Jordan moved to Montreal as a child when her French academic father took a position at the city’s Concordia University. She began performing in her teens, and by her 20s was recording with a range of Montreal acts: she wrote a song for singer Michael Breen that became a Canadian Top 40 hit.

By 1988 she was signed to Atlantic Records, who released her debut album Tell Somebody, with two singles – the title track and Double Trouble – charting just outside the Canadian Top 10. The following year she won a Juno (the Canadian equivalent of the Grammys) for most promising female vocalist.

Under appreciated Hard Rock

Danko Jones’ “Ship of Lies” is a three-minute blast of Canadian hard rock from Power Trio (2021)

The band keeps the arrangement lean and it hits like a heavy weight

What would you change if you had the power?
“If I Was God” is one of those songs that still hits just as hard for us today.

Underappreciated - Canada

Toronto’s Killer Dwarfs carried the country’s hard-rock tradition into the MTV-metal era with “Keep the Spirit Alive” from Stand Tall (1986)

Carrying that Triumph like torch.
