About Me


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hello. My name is Jacey and I am an acoustic pop/rock singer-songwriter. Previously, I have been named by XM Radio's RADAR Report as a "Futures" Artist a total of three times; a title given to "talented, emerging unsigned artists with a promising future". This national radio program has chosen three of my songs to be featured on their show including, “Beautiful” and “Hardened” from my first studio album, “A Good Mess” (2005) as well as the single, "Perfect Thing", from my acoustic EP entitled, “A Simple Sorry” (2006).
Recently, I released my third album, "One.Long.Continuous.Song" (2007). Teaming up with producer Johnny Hemberger (goodmornings, Bird Peterson), the new album is a perfect blend of acoustic rock with bright pop elements. When read in order, the song titles on, "One.Long.Continuous.Song", create a sentence that reveals the theme of the album and though each track stands alone, they flow continuously from start to finish!
You can purchase my latest disc, "One.Long.Continuous.Song", or my first album, "A Good Mess" from the following places:
As well as other online stores such as Napster, Yahoo! Music, Rhapsody, and MSN Music.
Thanks for stopping by!
