Title: Apparently Celtic Woman and Hayley Westenra influenced Jackie Evancho from young! Post by: urbanracer34 on January 20, 2015, 11:32PM I recently became a fan of Jackie (first it was her looks on the cover of her latest album, THEN her voice. Funny how that works, eh? ::) ::) ::)) and I decided for "the lulz" to type in her website to the WayBack machine, a digital history of the internet project if you would.
I eventually went through the links of a version of Jackie's site (mostly text and missing images that were not archived) and found her old youtube channel. None of the videos worked anymore, and I haven't done more digging, but I took this snapshot of some of the bio information that I thought was interesting. The image is a full sized screen grab and it clearly states Hayley Westenra and Celtic Woman as a couple of her influences.

It's great yet weird that one of the greatest youngest singers on our planet was influenced by a group that we all know and love dearly.

Post by: ShiningBright on January 22, 2015, 03:46PM I can't agree here o.O There are no similarities in their personality and apperance (except that both are some lovely, kind and good-looking young women) and their voices are veeery different. While Chloe used to have a gentle voice that suited her age, she sung with lots of ease. Jackie's voice always sounded way older than her real age and she had a very hard time breathing and using her technique which was actually way to much for her and she just recently "grew into" it. By now, she sounds a lot like Katherine Jenkins or Tarja Turunen - very dark and rich. Both are fantastic singers in their own right, but I can't see or hear any similarities.
