Eilen Jewell

I agree Tom; “Sea Of Tears” is a step up for Eilen and the band. I like the fact that it has more of a Rock & Roll sound to it, with Eilen even playing organ on three tracks. When I last saw them Eilen commented on the organ playing and mentioned that she’s never played it on stage. She said, “It’s pretty hard to carry an organ around with you when you’re traveling the country in a van!” I can’t wait for the next record, but it may be awhile. They’ve been on the road most of the year and are heading to Europe in a few weeks for a month and a half of touring. When they get back to the States’ they are booked thru February.

Thank you for the link, Tom; I enjoyed reading it. Eilen is definitely “the real deal”. Her and the band did an incredible amount of touring last year, throughout Europe as well as the States’. They are right back at it again in the new year. I may be seeing them on back to back nights in May. It’s a great experience to see them play live.
