Rickie Lee Jones Album Release Show At Carnegie Hall


10/23/2009
.
(PR) Legendary musician Rickie Lee Jones celebrates the November release of her forthcoming album Balm in Gilead with a performance at New York City's prestigious Carnegie Hall on December 7th.

This marks Rickie Lee's first performance at the famed-venue in nearly 30 years. The evening will celebrate her work over the years and will also feature material from Balm in Gilead.

2009 marks the 30th anniversary of the dawn of Jones' storied recording career,which exploded in 1979 with her self-titled debut album and its top 10 hit, "Chuck E.'s in Love." Jones had an immediate impact on pop culture, enjoying the massive buzz of an indelible SNL appearance and an instantaneous Rolling Stone cover, all while winning a Grammy for Best New Artist.

Three decades' worth of acclaimed creative journeys have ensued with both her singing and writing "voice" remaining, despite her pervasive and incalculable influence on two or three entire generations of singer/songwriters, among the most distinctive and instantly recognizable in music.

Balm in Gilead's songs flow easily through its roots and soul fabric; it reflects the lifetime work of a woman, whose very name is a genre. She's joined (on CD) by Ben Harper, Jon Brion, Vic Chesnutt, Bill Frisell, Victoria Williams and Alison Krauss among other highly talented friends.
