January 2020 - Turn It Up: Jewel Presents "No More Tears"

She made a lasting impression with her debut album, Pieces of You. Now, Jewel is back with a new single, No More Tears. The single was written for the document, Lost in America, which hits theaters in 2020. Lost in America takes an in-depth look at the issue of youth homelessness in America, highlighting the main issues that surround it: sex trafficking, the failure of the foster care system, and the rampant rejection of the LGBTQ youth. Jewel is no stranger to the topic, living in her car at a young age. “It is a subject that is so dear to my heart.” shared Jewel. “I was homeless for a year when I was 18 --I started living in my car because a boss withheld my paycheck when I refused his sexual advances. When my car got stolen things got more difficult from there. The issue of homeless youth is important, misunderstood and overlooked.” She also found it an honor to be an Executive Producer of the film, alongside Halle Berry, Rosario Dawson, and more. It has been a fulfilling experience to be a part of and offered inspiration. “It is a subject that is so dear to my heart. I was homeless for a year when I was 18 --I started living in my car because a boss withheld my paycheck when I refused his sexual advances. When my car got stolen things got more difficult from there. The issue of homeless youth is important, misunderstood and overlooked.”

No More Tears is the start to an exciting year ahead for Jewel, who is celebrating 25 years of her iconic Diamond RIAA-certified debut album. It still remains one of the bestselling debuts of all time. No More Tears is available now across all digital streaming platforms via Jewel's Words Matter Media/The Orchard.
