Fans of singer-songwriter Jill Jack know she's been a mainstay of Detroit’s music scene for over two decades.
Back in October, she released her 12th full length album These Days, a nod to the Jackson Browne tune.
At the 2017 Detroit Music Awards, Jack was recognized for Outstanding Americana Artist/Group, Outstanding Americana Vocalist and Outstanding Jazz Recording for "Pure Imagination."
Listen to the full interview above to hear Jack talk about a year of challenges, staying in Michigan and setting the record straight on rumors of retirement.
“I've been out of the country, I've been in every state, and there is just something about Michigan that makes me grounded, feels safe, makes me feel, you know, just myself," she says.
Jack will be at The Ark in Ann Arbor this Saturday night, January 13th.
Support for arts and culture coverage comes in part from the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs.
