Melbourne vocalist Karly Jewell has released her second full-length album, There’s A Jewell In Town. One of Melbourne’s most powerful rock voices, Karly is captivating audiences globally with her dynamic sound and heartfelt performances.
Her musical journey began at age five, inspired by her late grandfather, Tony Jewell, an acclaimed country singer-songwriter known for his work with Slim Dusty. Her versatility across genres has led her to form a hard-hitting rock band, playing iconic Melbourne venues like The Corner Hotel, Revolver, and The Boogie Man Bar.
Internationally, Karly has performed at renowned venues such as Whisky A Go Go and the Viper Room in Los Angeles. Highlights of her career include a nomination for Up & Coming Rock Band at the Vegas Rock Magazine Awards and top-charting releases on Triple J Unearthed. Karly recently returned from yet another successful tour of Japan, playing at key events in Tokyo, Yokohama and Osaka!
To celebrate the album release, Karly has released a video for the title track. Of which, she states: “This song proves to the world that you can be a small-town country kid and still write epic big rock songs. It’s a song about me always knowing I was too much for the small-town living. I had to get out, and music would lead me on a journey. I also knew this would be the Album title.
My late grandfather would always tell me before every show, “Let ’em know there’s a Jewell in town, babe.” It’s a promise I keep, and we’re definitely letting them all know now, TJ. Small towns grow big dreams! Keep dreaming x.”
