Jackie’s early performances included appearances with the Children’s Festival Chorus of Pittsburgh and features on PBS specials. Her expressive gestures and mature vocal quality stood out, even at such a young age. Realizing her potential, her parents enrolled her in vocal training classes to help cultivate her talent further.
Jackie Evancho rose to national prominence as the runner-up of Season 5 of the hit television competition show America’s Got Talent.

She also learned to play musical instruments including the piano and violin to complement her vocal artistry.
Jackie briefly ventured into acting, appearing in a local high school musical in 2007, although music has remained her primary focus. At the height of her early fame, she continued her education through online schooling to accommodate her busy career.
