At the age of eight, Jeanie , (JaeCie), Cunningham composed her first song, strumming the tune on a homemade cardboard and rubber-band guitar.  She hasn't stopped making music since.  Born in Los Angeles and raised in a military family, Jeanie bounced from city to city as a child.  Her pursuit of a musical career took a front seat when, while attending boarding school in Switzerland, a teenage Jeanie skipped classes to see Tina Turner perform in concert.

"The night I saw Tina Turner, it was like a burning bush from God," she says.  "I knew I had to meet her".  Jeanie not only met Ms. Turner, but Tina's performance of one of Jeanie's co-written songs, "I Can Take A Little Bit Of Pain" on the legendary "The Tonight Show", earned the newcomer her professional songwriting credentials.

 After an international tour with the all-girl band, "The Cherries", Jeanie began building her own recording studio, "Resnik-One", in Los Angeles.  Between road tours as a guitarist with Lionel Richie's band, and as an opening act for David Crosby ( Crosby Stills and Nash),

 Her pursuits as a solo artist have taken her all around the world, from Beijing to Cairo, as well as performing with her band, "JaeCie" in Europe and the US.  Jeanie's seventh and latest CD released on Chapter One is  "J. C. Phoenix... Rising" combines the talents of Jurgen Koppers and Les Hurdle as producers.  Described as a "happy collision between Sheryl Crow and Anastacia", by one L. A. disc jockey, "Phoenix Rising" shows off Jeanie's skills as a vocalist, guitarist and songwriter.
