in her teens. Rancourt has since made her mark as an artist, including speaking as an Advisory Panelist alongside with SOCAN, CMRRA, and other various Industry Leaders representing the Music Industry, advising aspiring musicians and songwriters.

After dedicating the past few years to writing
for various projects, Rancourt has finally released her long anticipated 2006 âSkin & Boneâ CD.

ROCKER NANCY RANCOURT TOOK ON TOMMY LEE

THE HAMILTON SPECTATOR:
Feature Article: ASTOUNDING VOCALS FROM STUDIO KNOW-IT-ALL
âThe fact that Rancourt has been able to pull it off is as much a testament to her abilities as a technician as her strength a performerâ. âTrue to the profile of itâs maker, the album is a collection of scrappy heart-on-sleeve tunes that buzz with emotionâ. Nancy Rancourt is a petite pretty woman from steeltown, not the burly Man of Steel typeâ¦on the inside though, Theyâre basically equals. (by Glenn Nott)

THE JOURNAL-PIONEER:
Feature Article: NANCY RANCOURT PROVES
SHE IS AN AMAZING ROCK AND POP SINGER
âShe can tear right into a rocker (song) or slip silently
around a ballad with just as much ease. âThe Characterâ
(the song)â¦Rancourt herself sounds almost like Julie
Andrews in this classy pop song that sounds
as if Billy Joel could have written it (since it sounds
somewhat like âYouâre always a Woman to meâ). It
features multiple layers of beautiful harmoniesâ
(by Raymond Arsonault)

CRAIG PARKS (Entertainment Lawyer): "Great Tierce de Picardi in 'Inhale Me', I personally find it hauntingly beautifulâ¦(I) have found her to be a talented musician and songwriter.â

DAYS OF GRACE (Independent Group):
â(She) enhanced our music and lives forever,
she taught us much in the art of creating a song.â

DAN CUTRONA (Keyboardist: Air Supply, Jesse Dixon, Bee Gees, Al Green):
(This) writing of (hers) is brilliant. She has a very strong musical and artistic sense. The songs are great, the singing is great, and the ideas are great, the ideas are right, and that says her instincts are good.
