Jewel has announced that she will release Picking Up The Pieces this fall, her first new non-holiday album since 2010, an album she says returns her to her roots.
"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," she says.
"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."
Picking Up the Pieces will be released September 15.
Picking Up the Pieces track list:
1. "Love Used to Be"
2. "A Boy Needs a Bike"
3. "Everything Breaks"
4. "Family Tree"
5. "It Doesn't Hurt Right Now"
6. "His Pleasure Is My Pain"
7. "Here When Gone"
8. "The Shape of You"
9. "Plain Jane"
10. "Pretty Face Fool"
11. "Nicotine Love"
12. "Carnivore"
