Jewel Shares Upbeat New Single “Living With Your Memory”

Summer 2022 North American Tour With Train On Sale Now

Jewel Performs On NBC’s American Song Contest 

Mondays At 8:00 Pm Local Time

Four-time Grammy-nominated, Multi-Platinum singer-songwriter Jewel shares the brand new high-energy single “Living With Your Memory” from her new studio album, Freewheelin’ Woman, out April 15th via her own Words Matter Music. Freewheelin’ Woman will be Jewel’s first new studio album in seven years. V Magazine said of the album in a recent “Heroes” feature, “encompassing folk, pop and R&B, Jewel weaves in themes of womanhood, independence, but most of all, hope. The somber soliloquies disguised as songs flow over like a soothing salve, comforting your deepest anxieties and worries.”

"This song is a really fun one for me,” says Jewel of “Living With Your Memory.” “It tells a story that illustrates the power of our memories. Sometimes we look back on past loves, and remember things better than they were. When living with the memory of a past love is better than the reality of living with the actual person, you get a song like this!" The track evokes a spirited sensuality through an undeniable combination of combustible rhythms, swaggering horns, and fiery vocal work.

Freewheelin’ Woman presents Jewel’s boldest body of work to date, revealing entirely new dimensions of her breathtaking voice. 

“It can be such a fight to cut through learned structure, older versions of yourself, ideas about what a hit song should or shouldn’t be,” says Jewel. “Even if we try to avoid becoming overly tamed, at some point we start to know too much. So the trick is to suspend all of that and create something you love, something that excites you. It took a lot of writing and digging and self-reflection, but I was finally able to do that with this album.”

The follow-up to Jewel’s self-produced and critically praised 2015 album Picking Up the Pieces, Freewheelin’ Woman finds Jewel working with producer Butch Walker (Taylor Swift, P!nk, Avril Lavigne), dreaming up a soulful and groove-heavy sound partly inspired by the classic R&B records made at Muscle Shoals. 

“I cut my teeth on singers like Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan and got into those Muscle Shoals records a little later on, and for some reason that’s where my voice and my writing wanted to go on this album,” says Jewel, who recorded Freewheelin’ Woman live with a full band. Along with lending the album a gritty vitality, that approach helped to capture the unfettered vocal work she’s increasingly brought to her live show in recent years.

Audiences will get a chance to see Jewel and her band live on tour this summer with Train, who are also featured on her recent single “Dancing Slow.” The tour kicks off on June 8 in Mansfield, MA, with 35+ shows  including New York, Nashville, Dallas, San Diego, and more before concluding on August 6 at the legendary Red Rocks venue in Colorado, Jewel’s home state. 

The Alaskan native is also a contender on NBC’s new music competition series American Song Contest, where she represents the state of Alaska amongst 56 rising and established artists from across the country competing for best song. The show is hosted by Kelly Clarkson and Snoop Dog, airing on Mondays at 8:00 PM local time. Visit the show’s page on NBC.com for local listings and more information.
