At just 10 years old, Jackie gained worldwide recognition after making her stunning debut on America’s Got Talent. She was immediately signed to Columbia Records where she released a string of successful recordings including O Holy Night (certified Platinum), Dream With Me (certified Gold), Heavenly Christmas and Songs From The Silver Screen.
Having collaborated with the legendary Barbra Streisand and pop singer Susan Boyle, as well as working with producer David Foster, Jackie has achieved monumental success despite her young age. Her broad successes led Billboard Magazine to include Jackie on its list of “music movers and shakers under the age of 21” in both 2011 and 2012.
She has since acted in Robert Redford’s “The Company You Keep” alongside Susan Sarandon, Shia LeBeouf and Nick Nolte, and performed as a special guest in Cirque du Soleil’s “One Night For One Drop” benefit at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.
Evancho has also participated in the lighting of the National Christmas Tree in Washington, D.C., where she delighted President and Mrs. Obama. She performed before 100,000 people in Russia with opera stars Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo prior to the opening of the St. Petersburg Economic Forum, and has performed in Japan before the Royal Family at the Imperial Palace.
Her first PBS special was one of the top pledge producing performances in PBS history.
