The other is the multi-platinum, songwriting folk/pop/country storyteller with her versatile vocals and guitar.

Did anyone happen to record a live stream of this? I didn't even think to look while it was happening.

Was there a real livestream? YouTube is filled with fake ones so often that I'd miss a real one.  They need to do something about that.

I don't know, I was searching youtube and found the fakes you're talking about, but I'm so bad at life that I didn't know what they were. lol!

Review: Chris Botti, Jewel Delight During Sunday Sunset Concerts at Hollywood Bowl
By Marvin Vasquez on August 16, 2017

The fascinating jazz / pop trumpeter and composer Chris Botti and uber-talented folk / pop / country singer-songwriter Jewel rendered a delightful show before a crowd of thousands during “Sunday Sunset Concerts” on Sunday, Aug. 13, 2017 at the Hollywood Bowl.

This was my second time catching a live performance of each, but there is absolutely nothing like witnessing each artist alongside the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra and Thomas Wilkins conducting.

Looking spectacularly, Jewel started things off with her cover of “Over the Rainbow” – the 1939 hit sung by actress Judy Garland and featured in The Wizard of Oz. This song, which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song at that time, can be quite difficult to deliver, but Jewel not only managed to do it, but did so beautifully.

Jewel, has sold over 30 million albums worldwide, was fighting laryngitis during her 11-song set. Still, her versatile voice did not disappoint one bit. In fact, she probably left the stage with more fans after her solo acoustic song “Meant for Me” enthralled our ears. Jewel, 43, and her guitar make the perfect musical dream team.

“Who Will Save Your Soul” – her first-ever single – was saved for last and it was a strong finale. But Jewel’s rendition of “Foolish Games” and “Intuition” (both accompanied by Thomas Wilkins and the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra). In “Foolish Games”, especially, Jewel outdid herself. Her vocals, despite the throat inflammation, turned out to be melodious while singing the poetic melody.

Chris Botti closed out the...meh, I don't care
