Never Standing Still
This summer, Jewel is hitting the road and traveling across the country with Train for the 2022 AM Gold Tour.
Biggest Fans
For much of the tour, Jewel will have her 11-year-old son Kase on the road with her. He'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of songs that Jewel doesn't get sick of, well almost. "The only one I sometimes get a little tired of is ‘Standing Still,'" Jewel confessed. "I think it's because the guitar is playing and my arm is tired."
Made for This
Before showtime, don't expect to see Jewel spending a lot of time warming up. "I'm just hanging with the band but I don't get nerves," she said. "I'm built to perform. I feel like a horse that was made to run. I feel really joyful and relaxed."
Feeling the Love
Jewel admitted that she is hesitant to tour because it can sometimes feel lonely and isolating. For these shows, however, she has a new game plan. "I'm creating a little friends calendar and I'm having friends come out and have friends hang for several days," she said. "I just want to make it a more fun, festive community environment instead of just hitting the road for two years and not seeing my family and friends for two years."
Gratitude Over Attitude
After getting discovered at 18, Jewel remains grateful for the opportunities she has to perform. "I'm having the career I want," she said. "It's not a pace for other people. It's not been for fame. It's not been for a record label....I'm honoring the gift because that's what this really is and I'm making sure that it works for me."
Showtime
"I hope people have fun," Jewel said when teasing her shows. "My goal when I got discovered was to have a really long career. I wanted to be one of the best singer songwriters." Nearly 25 years later, her dreams are a reality.
