Eilen Jewell

35 year old Idaho native Eilen Jewell seems at home on stage when she performs, which makes sense seeing as she recently explained that she started songwriting as early as 6 years old.

Since then the singer-songwriter busked in Santa Fe whilst she was at college, performed at local bars and music clubs in Los Angeles and eventually was picked up and released her first album in 2005 “Boundary County” and in the space of six years, she released another four full-length albums.

Her music is a culmination of a variety of classic American styles, she manages to mix the blues with country, folk, honkytonk and gospel and a live performance of this is certainly a beautiful experience.

Backed by her band members Jason Beek, Johnny Sciascia, and Jerry Miller, Jewell manages, Jewell entered the stage in an elegant black dress, and wowed the crowd with faultless renditions of tracks such as "Only One" "Bang Bang Bang" and "Sea of Tears." She had everyone in the room impressed when she pulled out her harmonica and played that whilst strumming her acoustic guitar, and inbetween her beautiful songs, she had us all in the palm of her hands, as she engrossed us with her quirky anecdotes that related to the following track, making it a truly enjoyable experience.
