Jewel - Multi-platinum Singer/Songwriter

What this episode covers

Multi-platinum singer/songwriter Jewel recently contributed to 'Johnny Cash - Forever Words (Expanded Edition)', a project that pairs artists with the words of Cash, encouraging them to create an original work. With a classic Western feel and whispery intimate vocals, Jewel’s interpretation of Johnny Cash’s lyrics for “Does Anybody Out There Love Me” is an intense emotional plea. For Jewel, this project really hit home. In her early years, she left an abusive household and found herself homeless and in dire straits. Her view of her traumatic past helped steer her to a road of introspection and self-examination. Here we caught up with this iconic artist to talk about the project, and so much more!
