Formed in the dreary weather of an Ottawa, Ontario spring in 2012 the pair made up of singer, songwriter and guitarist Riishi Von Rex and drummer and vocalist Michel Delage never fully intended to be a duo. However, once they combined Riishi’s howling vocals and unique mixed rhythm and lead guitar styling with Michel’s highly dynamic and occasionally chaotic approach to a drum kit the pair realized they had stumbled on a secret formula likely sought after by alchemists throughout the ages.

Sailin Shoes Sass Jordan - Bitches Blues ![]() ![]() |
The roots that grew Canada’s Queen of Rock, Sass Jordan, started in Europe and edged across the pond to the veins of metal pulsing in the musical metallurgy of Montreal in the 70’s. Montreal’s burgeoning ’70’s scene included a ‘no holds barred’ approach to glam, punk, blues, prog, metal, country, jazz, folk, with the added attraction of a homegrown sound created by the Quebecois artists of the decade, unique to the landscape and pertinent to the denizens of the period. There was no better musical place to be in the ’70’s- and this was the backdrop that nurtured one of the pioneers of female fronted rock – Sass Jordan.
In the years since these auspicious beginnings, Sass has found herself working with and in the company of many of the people that inspired her to do what she does, amongst them the incomparable Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Steve Miller Band, Van Halen, The Foo Fighters, Cheap Trick, Santana, Joe Cocker, Styx, Rodger Hodgson, April Wine, Jeff Healy, and countless others. She has won various awards, including Juno and Billboard, and has sold over a million records world wide. https://sassjordan.com/ PLAYING SATURDAY!
