Pop singer-songwriter Jewel [ tickets ] has scheduled a slew of personal appearances surrounding the release of her latest album, "This Way."

Her itinerary includes stops at radio concerts in Detroit, San Francisco, Hartford, Conn., Miami and New York. She will be backed by her band for most of the performances, but some solo acoustic shows are also planned.

Jewel will appear on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Tuesday (11/13). On Wednesday (11/14), she is set to perform at the New York Civil Liberties Union Celebration at New York's Irving Plaza, and the next day in that city, she will be honored at the Rolling Stone Do Something Awards.

The singer has also scheduled appearances on MTV's "Total Request Live" (11/15), NBC's "Weekend Today" (11/17), NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" (11/23), "My VH1 Awards" (12/2) and HBO's "Def Poetry Jam" (12/14).

On Tuesday, Jewel and Sean "P. Diddy" Combs are scheduled to announce this year’s American Music Award nominations in Los Angeles.

Three works from Jewel were released on Tuesday: "This Way" (Atlantic), the DVD version of the documentary "Jewel: A Life Uncommon"--which covers the Alaska-born singer's career from her beginnings in San Diego coffeehouses through her Spirit tour in 1999--and the paperback edition of her collection of poems and stories, "Chasing Down the Dawn" (Harper Collins).

"This Way," which features the first single "Standing Still," was produced by Jewel and guitarist-producer Dann Huff (Megadeth, Faith Hill). It marks the first time that Jewel has worked as a producer.
