Recent Projects
No Boundaries
Jacqueline collaborated with guitarist Larry Baeder to create original tunes that blur genre lines and feature the combined voices of guitar and cello in many musical arenas. The aim was to have “no boundaries” with creativity, expression, style, and collaboration. They recorded multiple pieces, including several featured below.
Panco Black Root
Panco Black Root combines the inspired lyricism of timeless Americana balladry; the high-octane, guitar-driven passion of classic Southern rock and blues; and the jaw-dropping musicianship of jazz and classical virtuosity. Founded by Jacqueline and veteran guitarist/songwriter Mike Panco, this dynamic ensemble electrifies crowds with their live performances and studio versions of original songs and covers.
