Last year Jones furnished fans with her latest studio album, the Ben Harper-produced covers album The Devil You Know, featuring sublime arrangements of beloved songs including Neil Young’s Only Love Can Break Your Heart, Van Morrison’s Comfort You, the Stones’ Sympathy For The Devil, plus one new ballad, Masterpiece written by Ben Harper.
Rickie Lee Jones was propelled into the global spotlight with the release of her now classic 1979 self-titled debut album. The album became a phenomenal multi-million selling hit, featuring the timeless Chuck E’s In Love, earning five Grammy nominations and winner of Best New Artist in 1980. Garnering two Rolling Stone magazine covers in just two years, Jones and her unique style became a cultural icon of the time.
Jones’ influential career has delivered more than 14 studio albums, among them Pirates, Girl At Her Volcano, Flying Cowboys, Pop Pop, Traffic From Paradise, It’s Like This which earned Jones an eighth Grammy nomination, Balm of Gilead and the current The Devil You Know.
