JEANNE McKIRCHY
ABOUT JEANNE
She stepped off the mainstream career factory at 19 and never looked back. As a singer in her first band ‘Loose Salute’ – her maiden indoctrination to the gig life inspired a life of non-reliance on the status quo.
Jeanne is a writer of words, a writer of music, a writer of songs. She has composed and produced over a thousand compositions for advertising and corporate film including scores for national NBC station IDs – which aided her understanding of the beauty of royalties. She was the first female composer for OmniMusic Library out of New York, creating instrumental compositions for commercial licensing. She was co-founder of White Horse Recording in Moline, Illinois and White Horse Studios in Portland, Oregon. She is the co-founder of Ricochet Partners, a full service advertising and marketing agency.
Songwriting and performing is Jeanne’s first love. To live is to write, to learn is to listen. She has travelled from a writer relying on inspiration to a writer of focus, purpose and drive. Enjoy her journey.
