Biography

City Canyons Records artist, Jacki B. lives in the country. Not some farm skirting a red dirt country road, nor a small town nestled along a long ribbon of two-lane blacktop, nor a ranch baking under a southern sun. Nor does Jacki hail from Memphis or Nashville. Yet she calls all those places home, because, as everybody knows, home is where the heart is.

So Jersey girl Jacki B sings country--alt country with a little western flair and a mulligan's stew of other influences. Country with a difference. That difference is reflected in her haunting City Canyons debut single, "Burning Star (The Astronaut)". While other country singers have heralded the adventures and misadventures of their cowboys, their working men and their desperados both romantically, in many a whiskey and tear-soaked ballad, and dramatically, in songs like "El Paso" and "Pancho and Lefty," Jacki sings of another kind of cowboy, a dying astronaut sending a last love song spriraling down from the heavens to his earth angel. Jacki's voice, the soaring lap steel guitar and the vibrant earthy mandolin of "Burning Star" bring vividly alive a tale of the last True West and its perishing but intrepid hero, a hero more truly romantic than any juke-box Romeo and braver and more tragic than any man that ever strapped a big-iron on his hip.
