About Jeanne Ciampa

Jeanne has never taken a straight route in anything in life. Early on at Berklee she won awards in community service by the Music Production and Engineering Department where she was one of the first females to graduate.

​

She won vocal scholarships and sang as a soloist in the Gospel Choir and prestigious commencement concert. Life took many detours to Nashville and then Los Angeles. Close calls with major labels and U2s producer Daniel Lanois all interested in Jeanne's music. She wrote songs for film and television. Life kept throwing curve balls and being a songwriter she wrote about all of it: from drive-by shootings to life threatening illnesses, earthquakes and helping blind elderly.

​

Instead of building accolades the world would approve of she was leading a life of service. She then had two children and decided to wait until they were raised to continue her dream of being on the radio and films. and winning a grammy.

​

Her influences run deep into the veins of R and B, Gospel and Jazz. Rock and 70's music and folk. She doesn't sound like anyone and doesn't want to. She writes because she has always written. She is currently working as an Advocate for Palestinian Refugees. True to form, the music follows the story.

​

She is now pursuing a record deal with a major label and representation from a major US talent agency.
