Jewel Lucien’s co-workers say that one day, Broadway or a big record company will steal this
Nashville treasure.
“Jewel is one of Nashville’s best-kept secrets, but the word is quickly getting out,” said Colline Schibig. “Some day, Vanderbilt will lose her to the entertainment industry, and we will
say ‘we knew her when she worked here.’”
Lucien, data management specialist for the Liver Transplant Program, has had
starring roles in local musicals, sang on many gospel compilation albums, and
is set to release her second solo album in July.
“The music I write is Christian inspirational,” Lucien said. “It’s still gospel, but not traditional. It’s upbeat tempo. I like the beats, and I like to reach out to a younger audience.”
