With her career poised to skyrocket in 2018, Jacqueline is the first-ever Country artist tapped for Vevo’s dscvr Artists To Watch program. The prestigious list is a globe-spanning collection of 20 up-and-coming artists set to breakout over the next year and includes alums such as Sam Smith, Alessia Cara and more. Adding to the well-deserved buzz, Jacqueline has been named one of Pandora’s Country Artists To Watch 2018 and was highlighted by Amazon Music as the platform's first-ever Weekly One artist. Her debut single “Reasons” continues to take the streaming world by storm, tallying nearly 12 million Spotify streams before hitting the Country radio airwaves January 22, 2018
 
After spending 2017 on tour supporting Dwight Yoakam, Ryan Adams and Billy Currington, Jacqueline was recently announced as a special guest on Brett Eldredge’s THE LONG WAY TOUR and Thomas Rhett’s LIFE CHANGES TOUR 2018, both kicking off in April. This weekend she will wrap up a string of shows opening for Bobby Bones and The Raging Idiots with performances in Oklahoma City, OK and Fayetteville, AR.
 
Lauded by her co-writer and renowned tunesmith Lori McKenna for her “badass rockstar vibe,” Jacqueline’s retro-chic style is on full display in the November/December issue of American Songwriter. Jacqueline, alongside producer Tofer Brown, dazzles in front of twinkling lights showcasing various guitars in a 13-page spread for the magazine’s 2017 Holiday Gear Guide, available on newsstands now.
