Are you also glad that flare bottom jeans and mullets are back?
We also love the 90’s.
And Jolene brings it all back with a full band covering her favorite artists inspiring her with tracks from Sheryl Crow, The Chicks and Fleetwood Mac.
And find yourself singing along to songs you didn’t know you didn’t even know yet from Jolene’s original repertoire.
Most recently playing the Main Street Festival in Franklin and The Coach House in California, and off the road with Rodney Crowell.
and YEP – named after the song, her dad Donivan Cowart was Dolly’s sound engineer!
Jolene has built a fun setlist, a dance & singalong show that is heartwarmingly nostalgic and entertaining!

Jolene with Sean Cunningham
2024-09-13 19:30 - 22:00 UTC | The Mockingbird Theater, Franklin, TN
Jolene’s what you call a unicorn, as authentically Nashville as you can get.
As her name suggests, Jolene comes from a rich musical background growing up in Franklin, Tennessee. Her dad, celebrated sound engineer and songwriter Donivan Cowart, worked with Dolly. A studio mouse from the time she was born, she soaked in the influences of legends like, Emmylou and Willie. She listened to Rodney Crowell and Roseanne Cash records being mixed and vocals layered with Lee Ann Womack. And it all made a lifelong lasting impression on her and taught her the power of sharing our stories through music. And as she grew up and started collecting records by Sheryl Crow, the Chicks, and Reba, her own unique blend of roots Americana, 90s vibes became her signature sound and a storied life, her coal mine.
