Jewel went from a girl who grew up with no running water on an Alaskan homestead, to a homeless teenager in San Diego, to an award-winning, multi-platinum recording artist who released one of the best-selling debuts of all time. Throughout her three-decade-long career Jewel has sold over 30 million albums worldwide and has earned 26 nominations for such awards as the Grammy Awards, American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards and Country Music Association Awards. Jewel has been featured on the cover of TIME Magazine and Rolling Stone; she has also performed on “Saturday Night Live,” the Super Bowl and the NBA Finals. Her music has spanned a wide-range of genres, with top hits in folk, pop, country and holiday music. She has released 13 studio albums, including her latest release “Freehwheelin’ Woman” (2022).
In addition to her work in music, Jewel is also an accomplished author, having published five books, including her 2015 New York Times best-selling memoir, “Never Broken.” Jewel has also dedicated herself to pioneering change in the mental health space, offering mental health tools and resources to those who need it through her Inspiring Children Foundation and Innerworld, a new virtual mental health platform.
Melissa Etheridge stormed onto the American rock scene in 1988 with the release of her critically acclaimed self-titled debut album, which led to an appearance on the 1989 Grammy Awards show. For several years, her popularity grew around such memorable originals as “Bring Me Some Water,” “No Souvenirs” and “Ain't It Heavy,” for which she won a Grammy Award in 1992. Etheridge hit her commercial and artistic stride with her fourth album, “Yes I Am” (1993). The collection featured the massive hits, “I'm the Only One” and “Come to My Window,” a searing song of longing that brought Etheridge her second Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Performance. In 1995, Etheridge issued her highest charting album, “Your Little Secret,” which was distinguished by the hit single, “I Want to Come Over.” Her astounding success that year led to Etheridge receiving the Songwriter of the Year honor at the ASCAP Pop Awards in 1996. Known for her confessional lyrics and raspy, smoky vocals, Etheridge has remained one of America’s favorite female singer-songwriters for more than two decades. Doors open at 7 p.m.
