To date, Arden has achieved 19 top 10 singles.  

A versatile artist, Arden co-created and stars as a fictionalized version of herself in the CTV Original Comedy Series JANN, available on CTV in Canada.

Now, Jann Arden announces her 13th studio album, Descendant, out January 28, 2022, via Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company.  

Produced by long-time collaborators Bob Rock and Russell Broom, Descendant arrives as a complete return to form for Arden. The 15-song collection represents the last 18 months of Arden’s life and headspace, reflecting on where she came from and where she is headed. Descendant is preceded today with the release of the heartening single “Steady On.”  See below for the full tracklisting of Descendant.
