Jann Arden Christmas Tour

Multi- platinum and Juno award winning artist Jann Arden will return to the Okanagan this fall with her special holiday tour, “A Jann Arden Christmas”. Her Western Canadian tour will be stopping in the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre on Saturday the 23rd of November. Get your tickets early to avoid disappointment and celebrate the holiday season with Alberta’s own Jann Arden, as she puts her own unique spin on the classics you know and love from her album “A Jann Arden Christmas”.

Arden catapulted onto the Canadian music scene in 1993 with the release of her debut album “Time for Mercy” featuring the hit single “I would Die for You”. A year later with “Living Under June”, she would have her career breakout hit “Insensitive”, that would solidify her position in the music world. She has released 14 albums and has had 19 top ten singles.

In her career to date, she has received 8 Juno Awards including Female artist of the Year, and Songwriter of the Year, and she hosted the awards in 1997, and again in 2016. She is also the recipient of 10 SOCAN awards, 4 Western Canadian Music awards, a Much Music Video award, 3 Prairie Music Awards, and an Alberta Recording Industry Association Award.

Arden is also the proud recipient of a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame, and in 2012 she was awarded the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal and in 2013, was inducted into the Western Canadian Music Alliance Hall of Fame.

In addition to being a singer/songwriter, Jann is of course an author of note. In 2017, she released the Canadian best seller “Feeding My Mother-Comfort and Laughter in the Kitchen as My Mom Lives with Memory Loss.” Her previous book releases include “If I knew, Don’t You Think I’d Tell You”, and “I’ll Tell You One Damn Thing, That’s All I Know", and her bestselling self-penned memoir “Falling Backwards.”

In 2010, Jann took on broadcast duties as the host of "Being Jann”, an hour long talk show on CBC radio, and just a year later she sat in the judge’s chair for Canada Sings. Never one to settle into one discipline, Arden has made appearances on several television sitcoms, including Ellen, Corner Gas, and on the Rick Mercer Report. Jann also has completed 3 seasons of her own popular CTV comedy sitcom “Jann” and recently did a cross - Canada comedy tour with Rick Mercer.
