“There's nothing darker and more depraved in all of creation than love's shadow side,” says Idaho-born songwriter Eilen Jewell of her newest single. Out today, “Lethal Love” is, in Jewell’s words, “A dangerous carnival of hungry ghosts, a Pandora's box full of eternal craving, inhabited by trapped, debauched spirits playing deadly games for the hell of it. But this song is an ode, not a dirge. Why not celebrate that dark side? It's not going anywhere, so we might as well enjoy it.” With Get Behind The Wheel, her ninth studio album—out on May 5th via Signature Sounds–Jewell chronicles the last few years of her life, giving fans a no frills album–her most honest work to date.
