Jewel Returns With Goodbye Alice In Wonderland

Jewel's "Goodbye Alice In Wonderland" video, shot spontaneously during a recent photo session with photographer Kurt Markus, reflects both the song's organic, intimate sound and its powerfully autobiographical story. Jewel's new album is slated for May 2nd.

Jewel tells her fans that, " 'GOODBYE ALICE IN WONDERLAND' is no fairy tale, but still it is a strange tale indeed. It is the story of my life - from the extreme solitude of Alaska to my first trip to Hollywood... from my rise to fame to the cliché crisis of betrayals by those closest and most dearly trusted. This is the most autobiographical album I have made since 'PIECES OF YOU,' and I spent a lot of time sequencing it, so that each song sets up the next, like a novel with a beginning, a middle, and an end. "

"By the end of the 13th song, if you have listened closely, you will have heard the story of the sirens' song that seduced me, of a path I both followed and led, of bizarre twists and turns that opened my eyes, forcing me to find solutions so that my loss of innocence would not lead to a loss of hope. Ultimately, the path turned back on itself, leading me closer to where I began: a ranch, this time in Stephenville, Texas, where I find my self delivered from the magic forest. Not broken, just more myself."
