Jacynthe (pronounced Jah-Saint) has reached the top rung on the ladder of success – a dream of hers since childhood. Devoted to singing from the age of three, and determined to have a career on the international scene, everyone who has heard her sing is undeniably convinced that it couldn’t go any other way. Thankfully, since the beginning, members of her team have shared her vision, her commitment and her determination to achieve the numerous levels of recognition and credibility required to fulfill her expectations. Having worked in the Canadian music industry since she was 16, this beautiful and talented Montreal singer/song-writer has already released four albums which have produced five number one hits in Quebec, five top-40 successes in Canada including a Top 10 hit Canada-wide on CHR and Hot AC radio with “Look Who’s Crying Now”.
Jacynthe quickly became one of the most recognized pop artists since the mid 1990’s. In 1999, she was nominated for a JUNO “Dance Music Album of the Year,” award, CMA Award and the following year as “Female Artist of the Year” at Le Gala de l’ADISQ. Thanks to the English-language versions of songs like “Give It Up” (recorded with its original composer Harry Casey of KC & The Sunshine Band) and “One More Time,” she was noticed in both Toronto and Vancouver and fell into high-demand on the talk show and Canadian music station circuits (MuchMusic, YTV, City TV, etc.). Youth magazines, such as the Canadian publication Teen Tribute, refer to Jacynthe not as an emerging artist, but as a young rising star on the international scene. Courted by the fashion world, and for the past 10 years she has been a friend of the House of CHANEL and ALDO Shoes, and became a spokesperson for Johnson & Johnson who quickly understood her popularity and influence on her young fans. Fashion Magazine named her “the most alluring Canadian Female vocalist”. For years, Jacynthe was the official spokesperson for the STARLIGHT FOUNDATION and was the face of Lancaster Italy Watches.
In 2000, at the age of twenty, Jacynthe’s success led her to live out of a suitcase for most of the year. She traveled to Japan on five promotional tours where she was a guest on the most prestigious television programs, to the great delight of her new fans. She also traveled twice to Disney World to tape “Le Spécial du millénaire” (The Special of the Millennium) as well as a Christmas special which aired on the Radio-Canada television network. At the end of that year, she spent 3 months recording her forth album in Sweden with Redone and also attended the MTV Europe Video Music Awards in Stockholm.
In the fall of 2003, Universal Music finally launched her fourth album “Seize the Day,” produced by Tino Izzo whose credits include working with GAROU and Celine Dion. The first single, a highly polished gem titled “Look Who’s Crying Now,” marked a musical evolution that scored a Top Ten in Canada.
In 2005, Jacynthe co-starred in a very successful French TV show across Canada called “La vie rurale” (French adaptation of the Simple Life starring Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie). The Americans took notice and she was invited to New York to appear on ACCESS HOLLYWOOD and INSIDE EDITION.
In 2006, Jacynthe addeds her energy and her powerful voice while on a US tour from January 2006 to December 2006, taking her to every major city in the United States for Cirque du Soleil’s musical extravaganza, “DELIRIUM”.
In November 2007, Jacynthe lived out a special experience with the foundation “Dreams Take Flight/Voyage De Rêves”. Jacynthe was invited and was honored to take part as a special guest along with the dedicated doctors, nurses and all others which are also invited as volunteers.
In July 2008, Jacynthe embarked on a 3 week adventure to conquer Russia and Europe. Jacynthe was invited to represent Canada for a very popular Russian Festival, watched by more than 175 million viewers, as her performances, rehearsals and activities were filmed for a 3 hour per day TV Show during a period of 6 consecutive days.
In January of 2009, Jacynthe spent a week in Italy and recorded two songs with Italian artist Alessandro Ristori (from Don’t Worry Records, owned by Rolando D’Angeli) shot a video for “These Boots Are Made For Walking”, 2 photo shoots and a show as a featured guest with Alessandro for a live DVD that will be released in Italy. The video of “These Boots Are Made For Walking” was released in Italy and then in Russia and Japan.
In April of 2011, Jacynthe released her 5th album called DEVOILE QUI TU ES and toured all summer including opening for International Super Star Pitbull in front of over 100,000 people, Canada Day in the Old Port of Montreal (50,000 people), opening for Universal Music’s IL VOLO at Place des Arts and headlining the Gay Pride Festival in Montreal (10,000 people).
Jacynthe is self-assured and in total control. This little girl has blossomed into a determined young woman unmistakably comfortable with who she is. She is presently in studio putting the final touches to her sixth album, to be released in Spring 2012 in English.
Jacynthe is also working hard promoting her French album in Quebec with already 3 Top Ten French BDS Pop Hits at radio and is very excited to launch her first English single called STEREO from her upcoming 6th album…
