Was Kitty, Daisy & Lewis zu dritt gelingt, schafft Eilen Jewell alleine. Am Samstag spielt die traditionsbewusste US-Songwriterin erstmals in der Schweiz. Statt wie Kitty, Daisy & Lewis von der grassierenden Retromania zu profitieren, bleibt Eilen Jewell bis heute ein unentdecktes Juwel. Der Songwriterin aus Boise, Idaho, gelingt das Kunststück, sich auf die Tradition zu beziehen, ohne altbacken zu klingen. Ihre Songs klingen wie Klassiker aus dem goldenen Zeitalter der Popmusik. Dennoch ist Jewell diesseits des Atlantiks bis heute ein Geheimtipp geblieben. [...]

Lynn's straightforward songs and Jewell's sly singing style meet in the middle on this tribute. Loretta Lynn came out of Butcher Hollow, Kentucky, and hit the country music charts like a lightning strike. Her outspoken, no-nonsense songs refused to shrink away from topics that female singers of her time were expected to avoid. "Fist City" and "You Ain't Woman Enough (To Take My Man)", for example, hold obvious hints of danger, while songs like "Another Man Loved Me Last Night" might raise a few eyebrows even now. Eilen Jewell revisits...
This is from Queen of the Minor Key, her newest album.
Eilen Jewell - Boston-based Americana singer/songwriter is back with her fourth album, a generous and inspired collection of spunky country-meets-roots/rock produced by Jewell and her band that just happens to be one of the nicest surprises of the year... the successor to Jewell's 2009 release Sea of Tears also follows up her fronting the Butcher Holler tribute album to Loretta Lynn last year // Release : Queen of the Minor Key (Signature Sounds) // Sounds like : Alt-country just doesn't get jazzier than this...Jewell possesses a glistening voice able [...]

Eilen Jewell Creates Indelible Noir-ish Pulp Fiction, Proves Ready For Crown With 'Queen of the Minor Key' Out 6/28 “If Neko Case, Madeleine Peyroux and Billie Holiday had a baby girl who grew up to front a rockabilly band, she'd probably sound a lot like Eilen Jewell.” -Washington Post On new album ‘Queen of the [...]
It took her three solo cds and one Loretta Lynn covers/tribute album, but Eilen has finally admitted what the rest of us already knew; she, indeed, is the queen of the minor key. Eilen is back with her fifth studio album and it continues to perfect that 50′s rock meets surf rock-Americana sound we’ve all grown to expect and love from her. It’s another 14 tracks that are perfect for damned near any mood. Early mornings, late nights, sober, buzzed, half-drunk, fully-drunk, God’s own drunk…it doesn’t matter, Eilen’s got you taken care of. As I said when I wrote about [...]
As stated before, The Family Straw recently moved from PA to MN (technically WI for now - MN soon). The Duchess and I traveled about 3500 miles in less than a week. During all that traveling, Eilen Jewel's latest album helped me along. Queen of the Minor Key is a 14 song kick in the pants. A 14 song blast of love, lose and lust. Eilen's sound is a throwback to a simpler time, when the car you drove defined you. When you could get a soda at a soda fountain. When white tee shirts help packs of [...]
