Eilen Jewell
Sunday, Jul 22, 2012 6:00p
Elk Creek Cafe and Aleworks
Millheim,
PA
Eilen Jewell's country-blues flavored folk on Boundary Country will remind listeners of many new, talented women singer-songwriters without ever seeming like a copy. Like the Be Good Tanyas, Jewell relies on fairly eclectic arrangements, though she's more progressive in her marriage of electric and acoustic elements.
