Eilen Jewell is from Boise, Idaho. She is based in Boston and has distinguished herself as one of the rising stars of a new generation of roots musicians. She is a prolific songwriter and has released 6 albums since 2006. Eilen Jewell herself channels the styles of not only country greats like Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn, but also Jazz and Pop icons like Peggy Lee and Billie Holiday. She’s got a smouldering unaffected voice that has echoes of modern artists like Gillian Welsh and Shelby Lynne. Eilen is touring with her longtime band of Jason Beek (Drums,Harmony Vocals), Jerry Miller (Electric, Acoustic & Steel Guitars) and Johnny Sciascia (Upright “Doghouse” Bass).
The Eilen Jewell band are on a European tour to promote her new album of Blues Classics. For this new album, Jewell has dug deep into the history of the blues to find 12 old gems that could be polished into new Americana-influenced versions to give the songs new life. Jewell has always wanted to record a blues album and now Down Hearted Blues realizes that long dream of hers.
Clonmel is the only Irish date on this tour, so don’t miss this show.
