SUMMARY:Eilen Jewell with The Sacred Shakers
DESCRIPTION:  Once in a great while\, you put on a CD by an artist you
	’ve never heard of before and time stops. The voice is new\, yet tim
	eless. The lyrics are original yet feel immediately familiar\, lived-i
	n\, knowing. The melodies [expertly performed by a first-rate band car
	ry an easy\, memorable groove. This is the story of Eilen Jewell. It s
	tarted after her 2005 self-released debut\, Boundary Country\, made it
	s way into club-owners hands\, onto a handful of radio shows and aroun
	d the press circles of Boston\, her current home base. Reaction to her
	 music was swift. Many compared her talents to those of Lucinda Willia
	ms\, Gillian Welch and June Carter Cash. The Boston Globe said\, he sl
	ow organic sway of her melodies\, and the sensual way she rubs against
	 the low end of her register\, will remind some of Gillian Welch. Also
	 like Welch\, her writing is both intimate and vivid\, classically fra
	med and closely observed. In an era dominated by artfully inscrutable 
	songwriters\, her songs come on like nakedness and thunder " and her k
	eenly visual way of articulating deep emotion is palpable.  For The Sa
	cred Shakers\, there's nothing finer than old-time\, country and blues
	-influenced gospel music. Think Hank Williams\, The Carter Family\, Th
	e Stanley Brothers\, Son House\, and Mississippi Fred McDowell. Beginn
	ing in 2005\, that music drew a small but ever-widening circle of some
	 of Boston's finest musicians and vocalists together at the Country Go
	spel Brunch concert series. In short order\, The Boston Globe describe
	d the group as "a local Who's Who of all-star roots musicians." And la
	st summer\, after hearing a single live performance by The Sacred Shak
	ers\, indie Signature Sounds label owner Jim Olsen encouraged the grou
	p to record their repertoire. On their eponymous debut\, The Sacred Sh
	akers offer new life to the gospel genre by revisiting the stripped do
	wn country and bluesy gospel material that inspires them.
