Biography

Biography Timeline

2000

Evancho was born on April 9, 2000, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Lisa and Michael Evancho. Her father operated a video security business until 2010. She has an older sister Juliet, a younger brother Zachary, and a younger sister Rachel. She was raised in a suburb of Pittsburgh in a Catholic family. Evancho began her education in the Pine-Richland School District, but at various times, after her career began, she received online schooling. She attended Pine-Richland High School, graduating in 2018.

2009

After Evancho saw the film version of the musical The Phantom of the Opera as a young girl, she began singing the songs at home. Her parents have stated that they did not recognize that her voice was unusual until her first talent competition, which she entered just before her eighth birthday. In the competition, Kean Idol, Evancho finished in second place. She began taking voice lessons and singing at events, churches and nursing homes, mostly in Pennsylvania. She also started a YouTube channel, sang in the Children’s Festival Chorus of Pittsburgh (now Pittsburgh Youth Chorus) during its 2008–09 season, and performed the title role in a 2009 school musical version of Little Red Riding Hood.

In 2009, Evancho competed in Las Vegas in the 15th annual USA World Showcase Talent Competition, where she finished in second place. At the 2009 Kean Idol contest, she was again runner-up. In other 2009 talent contests, she won the Golden Ribby Award – WonderworldTV and the Talent Quest TV Show (both in Massachusetts). Also in 2009, she sang “Ave Maria” in composer and conductor Tim Janis’s PBS television special “Celebrate America” and performed in other concerts and TV shows with Janis, who sought her out after seeing her on YouTube. She made various singing appearances around Pennsylvania in 2009 and 2010.

Evancho first caught record producer David Foster’s attention in 2009. She was selected for the regional semifinals of his “Hitman Talent Search Contest”, finishing as runner-up, and in October 2009 she sang in the “David Foster & Friends” concert at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

In November 2009, Evancho released her independent debut album, Prelude to a Dream. The album featured mainly covers of classical crossover songs such as “Con te partirò”, “The Prayer”, “To Where You Are”, “Concrete Angel” and “Amazing Grace”. It debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 121, and at No. 2 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart, in August 2010, after Evancho’s first performance on America’s Got Talent. Evancho’s parents withdrew the album later that month, citing Evancho’s vocal progress since its release.

2010

After two earlier unsuccessful auditions for the show, Evancho was accepted as a contestant on the fifth season of NBC’s America’s Got Talent (AGT) by placing first in its 2010 YouTube competition. On August 10, 2010, Evancho performed the aria “O mio babbino caro” in the show’s quarter-final round. The judges’ reactions were effusive. Afterwards, commentators queried whether her performance had been lip-synched. On the next evening’s live show, Evancho sang an impromptu voice exercise to demonstrate that the broadcast was of her live voice. In an interview, judge Howie Mandel addressed the issue: “[W]hat people are … really saying [is] that it’s really too good to be true.”

Her semifinal performance was “Time to Say Goodbye”. She advanced to the Top 10 round, where she performed “Pie Jesu” from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Requiem and was voted into the Final 4. Pittsburgh leaders declared the following week “Jackie Evancho Week”. Her final competition performance, on September 14, 2010, was of Gounod’s “Ave Maria”. The following evening at the AGT season finale, Evancho sang “Time to Say Goodbye” together with guest artist Sarah Brightman; then Evancho was announced as the runner-up, finishing second to singer Michael Grimm. Many viewers and commentators felt that Evancho should have won, and Grimm expressed surprise at the outcome. The show brought Evancho wide exposure to American audiences, as up to 16 million viewers watched her performances. The finale show was AGT’s highest-rated episode in three years. She was a guest on The Tonight Show a week after the finale, where she sang and gave her first late-night interview with Jay Leno. Evancho was featured and interviewed in the 2013 book Inside AGT: The Untold Stories of America’s Got Talent.

Later in 2010, Evancho performed in 10 cities with the America’s Got Talent: Live Tour, signed a record deal with SYCO music and Columbia Records, and performed in Las Vegas with David Foster. From June 2010 until mid-2011, Evancho coached with Yvie Burnett, who has worked with other singers appearing on AGT

Evancho’s first release on a major record label was a Columbia Records EP titled O Holy Night. It was released on November 16, 2010, and entered the Billboard 200 at No. 2, making Evancho the top-selling debut artist for 2010 and the youngest solo artist ever to debut in the top 10. It also launched at No. 1 on Billboard’s Classical Albums chart and No. 2 on Billboard’s Holiday Albums Chart. The album sold 239,000 copies in its first week. The EP was certified platinum by the RIAA, making Evancho the youngest solo artist ever to go platinum in the US.

Evancho promoted the album with TV interviews and performances beginning with The Oprah Winfrey Show in October 2010. Her other appearances included performances and interviews on The Today Show, The View, Martha Stewart Living and Fox & Friends. Evancho performed in the 2010 My Macy’s Holiday Parade in Pittsburgh, on NBC’s Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree lighting special, at the 2010 National Christmas Tree lighting in Washington, D.C., on The Tonight Show and at the 27th annual Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade, on ABC television.

Evancho performed as a young child in several musicals, including Little Red Riding Hood, in which she played the title role. She also appeared as an extra in the 2010 film She’s Out of My League. Her first featured television appearance was in the 2011 episode “Back to Max”, in the Disney Channel series Wizards of Waverly Place, where she sang “America the Beautiful” to work off school detention.

2011

Billboard ranked O Holy Night at No. 1 on its 2011 year-end Classical Albums chart. It also ranked the album as the No. 15 best-selling album of 2011 in the US and the No. 31 Canadian Album of 2011.

Evancho’s second full-length album, Dream with Me, produced by David Foster for Sony and Syco Music, was released on June 14, 2011. The album debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Classical Albums Chart, and was certified gold by the RIAA. With this album, Evancho became the youngest artist ever to debut in the UK in the top 5. The album includes popular songs (“Angel”), classical arias (“Ombra mai fu”) and original songs, including the title track, for which Evancho contributed to the lyrics. It also includes duets with Barbra Streisand (“Somewhere”) and Susan Boyle (“The Prayer”). Target released a deluxe edition with four bonus tracks. Allmusic gave the album 3-1/2 stars out of five, and USA Today commented that Evancho’s “sweet, unblemished vocal tone and slow, careful vibrato hardly betray her young age. … But Dream’s predictable and often bombastic odes to love and faith can undermine the tween’s most appealing quality: innocence.”

In July 2011, the singer began her first solo tour across the United States to promote the album. It consisted of 18 performances with orchestras, including Evancho’s New York City concert at Avery Fisher Hall in November 2011, when she was the youngest person ever to sing a solo concert at Lincoln Center. In December she headlined a concert with David Foster and Kenny G in Las Vegas. After a concert in Tokyo in January 2012 with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, the tour continued in the US and concluded in June 2012.

On its 2011 year-end charts, Billboard ranked Dream With Me as the No. 2 best-selling classical album for the year and as the No. 45 US album of 2011. Dream With Me was listed on the Billboard 200 for 28 weeks and the Classical Albums chart for 74 weeks. Billboard ranked Dream With Me In Concert the No. 21 music video album of 2011 and the No. 16 music video album of 2012. Dream With Me In Concert was ranked on the Billboard.biz Top Music Video chart for 64 weeks.

The selections include traditional Christmas carols like “The First Noël” and “O Little Town of Bethlehem”, standards like “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” and “White Christmas”, and newer songs, such as “Walking in the Air” (from the 1982 animated short film The Snowman) and “Believe” (from the 2004 movie The Polar Express). The album was released on November 1, 2011, exclusively by Walmart in the US and elsewhere in the US in October 2012.

Evancho’s television appearances to promote the album included The View, The Talk, and The Tonight Show. She gave concerts to promote the album in December 2011 in Buffalo, New York; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Pittsburgh. On its 2011 year-end charts, Billboard ranked Heavenly Christmas as the No. 4 best-selling Classical Album of the year. It ranked the album No. 41 on the 2012 year-end Canadian Albums chart.

Evancho performed the American national anthem at the 2009 memorial ceremony for the victims of United Flight 93, the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team’s 2010 home opener, and the 2011 NHL Winter Classic.

Other collaborations on the album are “The Summer Knows” from Summer of 42, featuring Chris Botti, trumpet, and “Come What May” from Moulin Rouge!, featuring The Canadian Tenors. An Allmusic review awarded the album 3-1/2 stars out of five.

A 2012 PBS Great Performances special called Jackie Evancho: Music of the Movies features nearly the same selections as the album. Evancho began a 42-stop tour to promote the album in August 2012 in Japan with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra. The first leg of the tour included concerts in two dozen North American cities through June 2013. Evancho also performed and was interviewed on television shows on NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox and CNN in late 2012. A second leg stretched from late 2013 to August 2014.

She returned to Japan in January 2012 to participate in the Bunkamura Orchard Concert Hall reopening program “Musical meets Symphony”, and to give her own concert there with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra. While there, she sang for the Imperial family. In February 2012, Evancho sang at the US National Prayer Breakfast. In April, Evancho appeared on Dancing with the Stars, singing “Ave Maria” and “Dark Waltz” to accompany two dance teams.

Evancho appeared on the National League of Junior Cotillions’ list of “Ten Best-Mannered People of 2011” for “demonstrating humility and politeness as a young performer.” She was honored in 2012 by the Senator John Heinz History Center at its 20th Annual History Makers Award Dinner as one of five “distinguished Pittsburghers … recognized for their exceptional contributions to the history of Western Pennsylvania, the nation, and the world”. Evancho was the youngest person ever to be so honored. The Kean Quest Talent Search, since 2011, has given an annual “Jackie Evancho Award” to a contestant who “exemplifies courage and motivation and pushes through to follow their dreams.” In both 2011 and 2012, Billboard magazine named Evancho to its list of “21 Under 21: Music’s Hottest Minors”. In 2017, Evancho was named to the “2018” Forbes 30 Under 30 list of musicians.

2013

Evancho joined over 200 Cirque du Soleil performers at Bellagio in Las Vegas in the 2013 event “One Night for One Drop on World Water Day”, to benefit the One Drop Foundation’s worldwide clean water access and education programs. Robin Leach wrote: “12-year-old superstar singer Jackie [Evancho] stole the night with her “Bridge Over Troubled Water” sung barefoot in the water of the giant stage. … She also dominated the fantastic finale flying in as an angel [lowered] on a harness from the theater rooftop.” In April 2013, she sang in concert in Taiwan with José Carreras. She performed another concert with Tony Bennett in May, in Alpharetta, Georgia, with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. In the 2013 broadcast of A Capitol Fourth, Evancho sang the national anthem and ‘”Can You Feel the Love Tonight”.

Evancho headlined a benefit concert, called Jackie Evancho & Friends: We are Hope, at the LDS Conference Center in Salt Lake City in late 2013, for the Muzart World Foundation’s programs to encourage the teaching of music and art in US public schools. She sang the US national anthem on Thanksgiving Day, at the Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions football game, broadcast on Fox. She then headlined a Christmas-themed benefit concert at Carnegie Hall produced by her old mentor, Tim Janis, in December.

A San Francisco Chronicle review of a 2012 concert judged her singing “an impressive thing to witness, and Evancho’s technical precision and enormous range only serve to make it seem less fluky”, but felt that “every selection sounded alike”. A reviewer for The Denver Post wrote that Evancho “displayed her famous combo of poise and articulation”. A Naples Daily News review stated: “Her poise. Her control. Her range. … Her voice and her performance exhausted all of the superlatives in the dictionary.” In 2013, an Atlanta reviewer commented: “Her pure and well-formed vowel sounds touched the hearts of everyone at the concert.” A review in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution called Evancho “awesomely talented” and “technically flawless”. The Buffalo News reviewer wrote: “there is a poignancy to the sound of this mature voice coming out of this child. Her high notes are a joy.”

2014

Evancho released her fifth full-length album, Awakening, on September 23, 2014, on Sony Masterworks’ Portrait Records label. Evancho promoted the album with a concert tour that began in November 2014 and continued into 2016, and a third PBS special. The album consists of classical pieces like Rachmaninoff’s “Vocalise” and the art song “Dormi Jesu”; classical crossover covers of more contemporary pieces like U2’s “With or Without You”, Lara Fabian’s “Je t’aime” and Within Temptation’s “Memories”; and several original songs. Walmart’s deluxe edition included six bonus holiday songs. Evancho released songs from the album including covers of “The Rains of Castamere” from Game of Thrones, “Think of Me” from The Phantom of the Opera, Ennio Morricone’s “Your Love” and the Vavilov version of “Ave Maria”.

Evancho promoted the album in a return to America’s Got Talent as a guest artist at Radio City Music Hall during the show’s ninth season. She also appeared on NBC’s Today Show, The Queen Latifah Show, the Oprah Winfrey Network and the Dr. Phil show.

She then headlined a concert with the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra at Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario, California, to benefit the Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital. She appeared in the 2014 gala to benefit Chicago’s WTTW television and WFMT radio stations and in the 2014 National Memorial Day Concert, broadcast by PBS. Evancho performed at the Songwriters Hall of Fame 2014 awards dinner singing “Over the Rainbow”. In September 2014, she performed at a David Foster Foundation concert to benefit families with children who need a major organ transplant. The same month, Evancho released a digital download of “Go Time”, a song promoting Justice clothing stores. In November, she sang a “touching rendition” of John Lennon’s song “Imagine” at the United Nations to introduce the UNICEF #Imagine program. Also in 2014, Evancho recorded the Leonard Cohen song “Hallelujah” with Peter Hollens for his self-titled album, and the two released a video for the song. A reviewer for Mashable called it “a gift from the a cappella gods”.

In 2014, Chris Payne commented for Billboard magazine: “Evancho’s stratospheric vocals are of course impressive for someone her age, though pipes like this are incredible for just about anyone.” in 2015, the reviewer for Digital Journal wrote: “The control she displays over her voice is tremendous, and she tackles the high notes … effortlessly, showcasing her angelic vocals and piercing pipes.” Robin Leach wrote of Evancho’s 2015 concert in Las Vegas: “She’s still got the voice of an angel. It’s remarkable, and her power is growing as she grows up. [She] had the audience on its feet with wild applause at the end of every song”. Some reviewers, beginning in 2015, noticed a lack of connection with the text; a review in The Washington Post called her voice a “bell-like instrument, devoid of any messy human emotions [with] an ethereally floating tone. … But imagine what Evancho can achieve once she stops obsessing over just sounding pretty, and actually listens to the words she’s singing.” Reviewing one of Evancho’s 2016 concerts, Steve Barnes similarly wrote for the Times Union that her voice is “an instrument of pristine beauty. It peals with the purity of bells and lofts tones that shimmer with celestial iridescence” but that her performance lacks “an apparent interpretive style or emotional connection to the material”.

2015

In 2015, Evancho made a video to support the Humane Society’s fight against seal hunting. She also joined Andrea Bocelli as a guest in his concert in Thailand. A review in The Nation commented: “If there’s anything on Earth close to the sound of an angel, it must be the heavenly voice of Jackie Evancho”. In August, she participated in a “David Foster and Friends” concert in Malaysia and released a video, covering Ed Sheeran’s “All of the Stars”, that tells a story supporting acceptance of LGBT people. In September, Evancho participated in another benefit, with Foster and Bocelli in Forte dei Marmi, Italy, for the Celebrity Fight Night Foundation. The same month, she performed at the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia as part of the celebration of Pope Francis’s visit to that city. In October 2015, Evancho performed at a benefit for the Global Lyme Alliance in New York City. In December, she sang the US national anthem at the Pittsburgh Steelers game against the Indianapolis Colts and released the first single on her own JE Touring label, a cover of Taylor Swift’s “Safe & Sound”, together with a video.

2016

Evancho released her sixth full-length album and third holiday collection, Someday at Christmas, on October 28, 2016, on the Sony Masterworks’ Portrait label. The album consists of nine previously released tracks, including collaborations with Plácido Domingo, Peter Hollens and Vittorio Grigolo, and three new tracks: Stevie Wonder’s anti-war song “Someday at Christmas” and two versions of “The Little Drummer Boy”, one with Il Volo. The new tracks were produced by Dina Fanai and Heather Holley. with arrangements by Robert Kinkel, formerly of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The album peaked at No. 93, on the Billboard 200, No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart (Evancho’s sixth consecutive release to do so) and No. 3 on the Billboard Holiday Albums chart. It was the No. 27 best-selling classical album of 2016. A review in Cedar Rapids, Iowa’s The Gazette called the album “a shimmering showcase for [Evancho’s] incredible vocal range and interests. … [The] duets in this project display her talents for harmonies, as well as tender melodies.”

Evancho promoted the album by appearing on the Fall 2016 cover of, and in an interview, for Inspiring Lives Magazine. She included songs from the album in her 2016 holiday concerts and performed on NBC’s Today Show, Fox’s Good Day Chicago, at the America’s Got Talent Holiday Spectacular and the Harry show.

In January 2016, Evancho appeared at the Mending Broken Hearts With Hope luncheon to benefit The Shelter for Abused Women & Children in Naples, Florida. She then released a single and video covering of Sam Smith’s “Writing’s on the Wall” and another single and video covering, Skylar Grey’s “Coming Home (Part II)”. In April, Evancho sang the national anthem at the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 2016 opening home game. She also released an original pop song by Peter Zizzo, “Apocalypse”. Billboard wrote that she “has found a brand-new sound. The 16-year-old singer … is taking a step outside the classical world that made her famous”; but Evancho told Billboard: “I’m not going to get rid of my classical voice, because that’s my roots, that’s what I love the most.” A reviewer for The New Yorker, however, found the track “cloying”, writing that Evancho “sounds unremarkable outside her genre.” She also released a video of the song and performed it on the Today show and Live! with Kelly and Michael.

Evancho provided the entertainment at the 2016 Project Sunshine benefit gala and returned to Washington, DC, to participate in the 2016 broadcast and live performance of A Capitol Fourth. She headlined a concert at Festa Italiana at the BMO Harris Pavilion in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, later in July 2016.

She also performed at the Memphis Music Hall of Fame 2016 induction ceremony in November 2016. She is set to participate in AGT’s first Christmas special.

A chapter in the 2016 book, Voicing Girlhood in Popular Music: Performance, Authority, Authenticity, by Dana Gorzelany-Mostak, Assistant Professor of Music at Georgia College, is devoted to analyzing Evancho’s career and influence. Gorzelany-Mostak writes:

2017

She released her seventh full-length album, Two Hearts, on March 31, 2017, on Sony’s Portrait label. It consists of an “album of classical crossover songs – with an EP attached of [five] pop tunes”, four of which she co-wrote. The release was Evancho’s first to include her own songwriting (other than contributions that she made in 2010 to the lyrics of the title song of Dream With Me). Fanai and Holley returned as producers and co-writers of the four songs on the EP with Evancho.

Evancho began to promote the album near the end of her 2016–2017 Live in Concert Tour. Television promotions included the Today Show, NBC’s New York Live and ABC’s The View. In April 2017, Evancho gave ten performances at Café Carlyle in New York City, where she was the youngest artist ever to ever perform at the venue.

The album debuted at No. 100 on the Billboard 200, and No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart, Evancho’s seventh consecutive release to reach the top of that chart. The Two Hearts tour continued throughout 2018 and into early 2019. In February 2019, Evancho competed on America’s Got Talent: The Champions but did not advance to the final. She also performed on the season’s finale show.

Evancho sang the US national anthem at the presidential inauguration of Donald Trump in January 2017.

On the same day, she released a recording titled Together We Stand, containing three songs: “The Star-Spangled Banner”, “America the Beautiful” and “God Bless America”. Evancho stated that profits from the release would go to LGBT “charities in support of my sister Juliet.” The three songs charted at No. 2, 4 and 5, respectively, on Billboard’s Classical Digital Song sales chart. Juliet, who is transgender, has advocated for a US federal law to allow transgender students to use bathrooms and other public school facilities designated for the gender with which they identify. Evancho led a TV special in August 2017, on the TLC television network, called “Growing Up Evancho”, focusing on the Evanchos’ family life and efforts to secure transgender rights.
