Her debut album Tell Somebody was released in 1988. In 1992 she sang a duet with Joe Cocker, "Trust In Me", for the movie The Bodyguard. While her debut was musically a pop album, her follow up "Racine" was more pop/rock oriented and her third album "Rats" was plain raw rock. She collaborated with godfather of P-funk George Clinton on a track off the album called "Ugly".
Jordan lived in the US for a while. During her tenure in LA, Jordan became friends with Eddie Van Halen who lived down the street from the singer and often went over to their rehearsal spit for frequent jams. Unbeknownst to Jordan, Van Halen was searching for a new lead singer and once this realization came up in conversation, Jordan put the brakes on and ensured Eddie that having a female vocalist would be the worst career move that Van Halen could make. Jordan moved back to Canada in 1996.
Jordan is also an accomplished actress, who starred in the lead role of Janis Joplin in the off-Broadway hit, "Love Janis." Jordan has guest starred on NBC's Sisters and was featured in the Toronto and Winnipeg productions of "The Vagina Monologues."
She is currently a judge on Canadian Idol. Due to her easygoing manner, she's often compared with American Idol's Paula Abdul.
In 2009, Jordan entrusted her husband Derek Sharp with producing her album From Dusk 'til Dawn. The album was recorded in only three weeks and was mixed in Los Angeles. In discussing the songwriting for From Dusk ‘til Dawn, Jordan explained, "I was thinking about how human beings seem to be more sensitive and worried about things from sunset to sunrise. When you're alone is when the fear of death really hits you, and I was trying to write songs that were related to the fears of the middle of the night."
In 2011, Jordan recorded the studio project album S.U.N.: Something Unto Nothing featuring Brian Tichy and Michael Devin of Whitesnake, and Tommy Stewart. The album began when Jordan reunited with Tichy at his Santa Clarita home studio to write songs. Something Unto Nothing marked the first collaboration between Jordan and Tichy since Rats. "Burned" was the first song that Jordan and Tichy wrote together for the project, which soon evolved into a full album.
In 2017, 25 years after the release of Racine, Jordan recorded Racine Revisited featuring reimagined versions of the songs from the original 1992 album. "We pushed the sound back to the Misty Mountain Hop days of the 1970s and made it as if we were actually recording back then," said Jordan. "We would all live together in the studio and record live off the floor [without] Auto-Tune or click track or anything like that". Of the recording process, Sass Jordan said that Racine Revisited was "the most fun I’ve had in a while making a record." "Instead of taking Racine from 1992 to 2017, we went from 1992 to 1976".
In 2020, Sass Jordan released Rebel Moon Blues, her first blues album. Rebel Moon Blues features covers of blues classics, as well as the original "The Key". In discussing "The Key" on SXMCanadaNow, Jordan said, "That song was written about three weeks before we went into recording. Derek and I realized we should have at least one song that we wrote together on here, and so we came up with "The Key". The whole song came together in an hour. When it's meant to happen it really just flows out." Rebel Moon Blues was critically acclaimed upon release, with American Blues Scene writing, "After three decades in the business, many singers lose that certain something that may have launched their career. Not so with Sass Jordan. Not only is her voice as muscular as ever, I think, like fine wine, it's improved over the years." The album debuted at #5 on the Billboard Blues Album Chart.
Her second blues album called Bitches Blues, featuring the song Still Alive and Well, was released on June 3, 2022.
In April 2023, Sass Jordan’s much anticipated live album featuring Taylor Hawkins on drums in 1994 will be available on streaming and vinyl pre-orders. Album is called Live in New York Ninety-Four. First single is High Road Easy Live.
