Melbourne Vocalist Karly Jewell Delivers New Ballad 'In The Dark'
-
Melbourne vocalist and another talented XMusic artist, Karly Jewell, has delivered her new single, In The Dark. The song demonstrates her diverse range, both in songwriting and vocal delivery. In The Dark is a melancholic haunting ballad that aches with honesty.
Karly says that "In The Dark is a song about reflection, it's memories, it's learning and it's personal growth and to continue. As an artist sometimes it's the feeling of the saddest emotions that gets the music flowing. I felt homesick and was still grieving the loss of my Grandmother and during that time I suffered from complicated grief. Sometimes the only way I could find peace was laying in my room in the dark and crying for hours but it was all a part of the healing. It was also the time I realised that no place would ever feel like home, because the ones you loose have your heart and within their heart is where your home used to live. In the dark we find music and in the music we find healing."
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. You can catch Karly next month supporting Dellacoma here in Melbourne (tickets below).
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 2014 Vegas Rock Magazine Awards and top-charting releases on Triple J Unearthed.
