Eilen Jewell Band
Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
American roots music for people who want to think as well as party.
Tom Nelligan, Sing Out! ///
A performance by Boise-born, Boston-based Eilen Jewell is a journey through American roots music styles. Drawing on the sounds of the past, Eilen's lyrics are rooted in today. "There are moments onstage when she visits the 1920s to resurrect the spirit of Bessie Smith and face hard times with cool toughness, and in the next song she jumps forward ten or twenty years to party with Bob Wills. She stops for a drink with Hank Williams and Patsy Cline, kicks back and dances with the rockabilly stars of the 1950s, and borrows songs from the 1960s folk revival."
Backed by a first-class country/rockabilly trio, Eilen (rhymes with feelin') "alternates between the roles of honky-tonk party girl and vulnerable waif, restless seeker and swing-style crooner." Tom Nelligan, Sing Out!
