Hailed by American Songwriter as one of Americas most intriguing, creative, and idiosyncratic voices, Eilen Jewell rises from the ashes on her captivating new album, Get Behind The Wheel , picking up the pieces of her shattered world and finding new purpose and meaning after watching her marriage, her band, and wha t felt like her entire career fa ll apart in a series of spectacular, heartbreaking implosions. Co - produced by multi - instrumental wizard Will Kimbrough (Todd Snider, Hayes Carll), the collection pushes the acclaimed singer and songwriters trademark blend of vintage roots - noir into more psychedelic territory, with spacious, cinematic arrangements complementing her reve latory explorations of grief, loss, resilience , and redemption.An Idaho native, Jewell built her career the old fashioned way, touring relentlessly with the kind of undeniable live show that converts the uninitiated into instant acolytes. Over t he course of nine albums , shes crisscrossed the globe countless times and shared bills with the likes of Lucinda Williams, Loretta Lynn, Mavis Staples, Wanda Jackson, George Jones, and Emmylou Harris. Rolling Stone lauded Jewells clever writing, while NPR declared that she has a sweet and clear voice with a killer instinct lurking beneath the shiny surface, and The Washington Post mused that if Neko Case, Madeleine Peyroux and Billie Holiday had a baby girl who grew up to front a rockabilly band, shed probably sound a lot like Eilen Jewell.
