Details:
Jacqueline Danielle Manaui Heck has been inspiring people with her music and love of performing since the age of 5. Born and raised in Oxnard, California, Jacqui has never been one to shy away from the spotlight. Her multi-dimensional talents span from artist, to athlete, to
beauty queen, and she is as comfortable on a stage as she is on a basketball court.

Jacqui's debut album "The Chance", developed in collaboration with producer David Sparkman, is a musically diverse and inspiring collection of songs. Filled with poetic lyrical intricacies, "The Chance" is both powerful and passionate. Jacqui's songwriting, vocal range, and natural
charisma shine through and reflect a sweet and soulful charm.

The title track "The Chance" has a hard-hitting rock rift along with hip-hop influenced beats. "Yours" is an uplifting ballad about discovering new love, while "Drivin Me Crazee" is a dance track (featuring rapper JDS)
that is guaranteed to get you movin!

Her style is all her own but Jacqui cites Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Brandy, Brian McKnight, Shania Twain, Mariah Carey, and Fiona Apple as influences.

Jacqui's recent live performances include openings for old-school greats Shalamar, Midnight Star, George Johnson, Jerry Lee Lewis, and former Prince protégé Morris Day and The Time.

Singing isn't Jacqui's only talent. She is skilled in both hip-hop and Tahitian dance. She has appeared in multiple theatre productions including Interactive Dinner Theatre as part of the Gypsy Players Ensemble. She is the former Miss Oxnard Teen USA 2002 and Miss Oxnard USA 2004, and was a semi-finalist in the Miss California Pageant 2005.
