"Think pretty, strong, gentle urban beats with a hint of sugarpop, cool melodies... and the ethereal yet sensual vocals draw you in while tapping into the sound of British trip-hop bands like Portishead and Sneaker Pimps." - Mookychick.com - UK
"The first step -- especially for young people with energy and drive and talent, but not money -- the first step to controlling your world is to control your culture. To model and demonstrate the kind of world you demand to live in. To write the books. Make the music. Shoot the films. Paint the art." - Chuck Palahniuk
Hailing from Boston, Jackie began her music career when her mother pushed her to take piano lessons at 8. After quitting for a few years she found herself drawn back to the keys. She resumed training as a classical pianist. More and more influenced by 70s classic rock/folk, 80s hip hop/pop, and early 90s pop/rock/r&b she started writing songs at 16. She idolized strong powerful female singer/songwriters. From 2005-2006 she attended the pretigous Berklee College of Music focusing on songwriting. A self-proclaimed music obsessed nerd, she is now back in NYC producing her own beats to sing over and taking her songs to a whole new level - meanwhile creating a hot unique sound for 2007 and the future of indie music.
"Berklee was amazing and the environment was great to be surrounded by people who are passionate about what I love. But I felt the need to come back to New York. The energy is so inspiring and it's what I need right now in my life."

[Jackie has played out in smaller New York City venues and will be performing in New York City and Brooklyn in the near future.]
