JOY'ALL - Jenny Lewis [VINYL]

'Joy'All', the fifth solo album from Jenny Lewis and follow up to 2019's critically acclaimed 'On The Line', finds the singer-songwriter embarking on a new era in a new town. 'I started writing some of these songs on the road, pre-pandemic... and then put them aside as the world shut down, and then from my home in Nashville in early 2021, I joined a week-long virtual songwriting workshop with a handful of amazing artists, hosted by Beck. The challenge was to write one song every day for seven days, with guidelines from Beck. The guidelines would be prompts like 'write a song with 1-4-5 chord progression', 'write a song with only cliches,' or 'write in free form style'. The first song I submitted to the group was 'Puppy and a Truck''. As the days progressed, the assignments kept coming in and Jenny ended up writing a good portion of 'Joy'All'. While it pulls from a bounty of sonic inspiration-from soul to '90s R&B, as well as country and classic singer-songwriter records, the album's rich and intimate, live sound is the hallmark of eight-time Grammy winning producer Dave Cobb (John Prine, Brandi Carlile, Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell). 'Joy'All' is a beacon of enlightenment that could only come from embracing life, taking the good with the bad; it's a ten-song overture that invites the listener to find their own path to joy.
