Jackie Evancho Is One of the Youngest to Have a #1 Album
Jackie Evancho is one of the youngest artists to have a #1 album with her inspirational new album "Awakening." At 14 years old, vocalist Jackie Evancho debuts at No. 17 and also earns her fifth No. 1 on Classical Crossover Albums with the new release. Thus, she manages the notable feat of having No. 1s as both a tween and a teenager.
Evancho notched her first of five No. 1 albums when she was only 10-years old, back when O Holy Night opened at No. 1 on the Dec. 4, 2010 Classical Crossover chart. (Evancho also claimed a pair of No. 1s when she was 11, in 2011, and another when she was 12, in 2012.). Other artists with No. 1s both as a tween and teen (and sometimes beyond) include Hanson's Zac Hanson, who claimed various chart toppers at 11, 12, 13, 18 and 21.
Jackie Evancho first dazzled American television audiences at age ten gaining global recognition with her stuffning debut on NBC's America's Got Talent. Since then, she has released a string of successful albums, acted in Robert Redford's The Company You Keep alongside Susan Sarandon and performed for President and Mrs. Obama at the National Christmas Tree Lighting in Washington D.C. Earlier this year, Jackie performed at the PBS Memorial Day Concert and also at the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Throughout the summer, Jackie is doing a special promotion with tween clothing store Justice. She will be featured in their summer catalogue, and the video for an exclusive song she recorded for the chain, "Go Time," will be featured on their website and on screens in all 900 Justice stores nationwide.
