ARTIST: Jackie Bristow
Jack Bristow was born in Gore, New Zealand and relocated to Sydney in 1995. She released her debut album Thirsty in 2002, her new album is Crazy Love.
"I'm living the dream, but it's not easy. It's not an easy dream", she says.
Bristow discovered singing in the St Mary's School choir when she was eight, and by the time she was fourteen she was touring the South Island with her sister, Katrina as the Bristow Sisters. She hasn't stopped since.
After a decade spent touring the United States, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, this singer-songwriter has earned her spurs. Her sweet melodies and hypnotic tones have US critics heralding her as one of New Zealand's most talented musical exports.
Jackie's regular Los Angeles band includes Jeff Young, member of Steely Dan's and Jackson's Browne's band, and her drummer Mauricio Lewak also plays with Jackson Browne and Melissa Etheridge. That's life as a respected musician in Hollywood...
