Throughout the season, Jann also faces a number of musical rivals, both old and new.

She becomes determined to patch things up with her family and her on-again, off-again girlfriend, Cynthia. Meanwhile, a musical rival (guest star Sarah McLachlan) tracks Jann down, and she’s pissed. Episodes of JANN are directed by Ron Murphy (WYNONNA EARP, TRAILER PARK BOYS).
