CL RECOMMENDS

CRITIC’S PICK: West Coast singer/songwriter Jones exploded on the scene with her critically lauded, Grammy nominated 1979 debut (she won for best new artist that year). While little since has made a similar commercial splash, she has continued to grow musically over the decades, mixing jazz, folk, pop, covers from the Great American Songbook, and even electronica, with original compositions sung in a distinctive bohemian voice. She’s unpredictable but like most great artists, hits more home runs than outs. Jones will likely dig into the recent Pieces of Treasure collection that finds her in full nightclub diva mode. But it’s likely she’ll touch base on her “Chuck E.’s In Love” era too. — Hal Horowitz

From the venue:

City Winery Atlanta presents Rickie Lee Jones on Saturday, October 5th at 8pm!

Rickie Lee Jones is an American musician, storyteller and two-time Grammy winner who has been inspiring pop culture for decades, beginning with her star-making self-titled debut, followed by the seminal Pirates. Named the “premiere song-stylist and songwriter of her generation” by The New Yorker, and “The Duchess of Coolsville” by Time magazine, Jones released her Grammy-nominated album Pieces of Treasure in 2023, a reunion with Russ Titelman, who produced her first two records. Jones’ celebrated memoir Last Chance Texaco was named Book of the Year by MOJO and a Best Book of the Year at Pitchfork and NPR. The Independent writes, “There has always been something defiant about Rickie Lee Jones . . . a voice from a dream, elusive yet familiar, transcendent, a messenger from another place.”
