Jewel’s Country State Of Mind

Jewel’s new album – Sweet And Wild – drops June 8, one week into her “Star Light Café Tour” sponsored by insurance / financial company Country Financial.

“I am so excited to hit the road as part of the Country Financial Road Trips and Guitar Picks concert series,” Jewel said. “It gives me a great opportunity to spend some time with the fans. I’ve spent the better part of my year writing and recording this album. There is nothing more rewarding for me than getting the chance to perform some of my new songs along with the hits I’ve had over the course of my career. These shows really become a sneak peek into my songwriting and my life.”

After the June 1 opener in South Dakota at the Fargo Theatre, Jewel plays Saint Paul at the O’Shaughnessy June 2; Milwaukee at the Pabst Theater June 3 and Chicago at the Vic Theatre June 4.

Other stops include St. Louis (June 6), Atlanta (June 11), Huntsville (June 13), Kansas City (June 16), Denver (June 18), Boise (June 21) and Portland (June 25). Last show on the run is in Seattle at the Woodland Park Zoo Amphitheatre June 27.

Opening for Jewel beginning with the Atlanta date will be Radney Foster, while the Boise show is a co-headline with Brandi Carlile.
