Jaci Rae: Singer, Writer...Renaissance Woman
She could have just been a singing star and that would have been enough.

It would have been enough – more than enough – for anyone with a fabulous voice and a dream. Win the Golden Music Award's “Female Vocalist of the Year”...earn the prestigious Levi Strauss award...garner a bunch of other industry awards...release some fantastic CDs as Jaci has and the average person could have died then with a great, big smile on their face.

Jaci Rae is not your average person.

Far from it, in fact. She is that rare woman in command of a range of creative skills, thoroughly able to impact the world with each one.

A Singer...Like a River

When Jaci started out in the music business, she was the greenest of greenies. An outsider's outsider. Faced with those kinds of impossible odds, the hopes of hundreds of thousands of other would-be singing stars have withered on the vine and died.

It only made Jaci all the more determined.

She had little idea how to launch her own singing career. There were, after all, no manuals on the subject available to a poor child. So she learned. Several years of trial and error later – of learning what made music execs and their unusual industry tick – yielded success. Great success in fact. To date, Jaci has achieved four number one singles in her brand of heartfelt country...plus top 20 on the CMA charts in Europe.

Her latest CD, Can't Push a River, is a critical and commercial success. Said DJ, Chris Allen, from Big Kat 98.9 in Minnesota: “There is so much heart and soul in Jaci's music! Incredible CD!” More praise followed. “This is a great CD. The first 2 songs are especially Terrific. All in all it's a great CD and should do well for her,” said Grand Ole Opry Star, Ernie Ashworth.

And from across the pond, Raymond Phillips from Country Harvest Radio in Australia said, “Can’t Push a River is truly a first class product, something Jaci can really be proud of from the first to the last track!” And the list goes on!

Accomplish this much and people will call you a leader. But Jaci was just getting started.

Cutting a Path to Music Success

… Then Mapping the Way

Not everyone can write. Fortunately, #1 Nationally Best Selling Author, Jaci Rae can.

With that talent, she has given others the roadmap to music success she never had.

It's called “The Indie Guide to Music, Marketing and Money.” To many budding singing stars, it is the single missing piece in their music career puzzle.

“WOW! Jaci Rae's book, The Indie Guide to Music, Marketing and Money, is what I have been looking for all along!” said singer, Justin Timestin. He's not alone. With the Guide's help, Reginald Owens and his partner, “not only got college bookings, radio, and Internet airplay, but also the number nine spot in the CMJ.”

The thing is, testimonials like these are typical of the feedback Jaci's book generates. “The Indie Guide to Music, Marketing and Money” has changed (and will change) the destinies of struggling singers and musicians throughout America.

But here's what's so remarkable: Not everyone returns after they've achieved success to help others succeed, too.

Jaci is that rare person.

Writing Relationship Wrongs

Helping relationships succeed is another of Jaci's crusades.

The fact that so many marriages crash and burn is an issue with her. To Jaci, it's just common sense that good relationships boil down to good communication. That was an important lesson Jaci learned early on as a counselor for troubled youth.

With all their science, psychologists and psychiatrists still don't have the answer to the divorce epidemic (collectively, the group has an outrageous divorce rate of 90 percent). Jaci knew that and struggled to come up with her own model for teaching, her own style for instructing principles of communication in relationships.

She found it in football, of all places.

Winning Points with the Woman in Your Life One Touchdown at a Time is an original work, a refreshing, slightly tongue-in-cheek comparison of football and relationships that gives men a memorable way of visualizing male/female action and reaction.

“The award-winning singer's 10th book tackles the subject of improving romantic relationships. Cleverly using football plays, scrimmage strategies, and tactical maneuvers as analogies, she shows the male reader how to score big points with their woman,” wrote Richard Leiby of The Washington Post.

Couples have already written to thank her for the huge help this book has been. But this is just one more impact from a very impactful woman.

Renaissance Lady

With her tenth self-help book completed; with her music career firmly on course; with all of these accomplishments coming at a very early age, Jaci remains grateful for her blessings and excited about the future.

Her future will undoubtedly include many new achievements.

A “Renaissance Woman” is someone accomplished in a number of fields, including the arts and sciences.

What a perfect way to describe Jaci Rae.
