Hailing from Toronto, Canada, Jacqueline Tucci combines clear-cut, catchy songwriting with a wide range of tones and sounds. Warm vocals accompany steady rock rhythms and melodic lead riffs, lending her music a familiar and friendly sound. After years of honing her songwriting abilities as a solo acoustic act, Jacqueline is now making the transition to full-band arrangements, driven by a desire to branch out musically, and to explore new genres and sonic landscapes. She is not afraid to cross genres and always has an ear out for new influences to draw from.

Sneaky Dees nachos, pasta from Terroni or a superfood salad from Fresh?

I’ve lived on both! Love them both in different ways. But Queen.

Bellwoods. But the Riverdale farm is something I love in the city.
