This is album is what her fans have been asking for for years. Written (the new songs) and recorded whilst going through a divorce the album looks to be a return to form for Jewel. Details of the new book and album were posted in a blog entry on her website.
An excerpt from the blog:
My focus for this CD was to forget everything I have learned about the music business the last 20 years and get back to what my bones have to say about songs and words and feeling and meaning. I let go of genre, radio, trend, current events, and clever strategies. I let go of it all - which was no small feet as those voices are so deeply penetrating after 20 years of doing this professionally. It took real effort to clear my thoughts and have no rules and just create - going back to my folk/American roots that I began with.

I'm so excited for this album! I've been waiting for years for songs like Everything Breaks, Carnivore, A Boy Needs a Bike, Nicotine Love to be recorded. I've loved Jewel's writing for years, her lyricism really is untouchable. As much as I love Mariah's writing I have to say I think Jewel is the best female songwriter of the last 20 years. The live versions are always incredible and I'm looking forward to seeing how Jewel records them.
September can't come soon enough!
