Jill Colucci BIOGRAPHY If you listen to the radio, watch TV, or go to the movies, you already know Jill Colucci. At just about any given hour somewhere, Jill’s voice or original song can be heard. She is a multi-plati- num award-winning songwriter with #1 hits including Song of the Year “No One Else On Earth” by Wynonna Judd, “I’m Gonna Be Somebody” by Travis Tritt, and “Anymore” which she co-write with Travis. Her songs have sold over 20 million records worldwide. Jill has entertained America as the writer and vocalist of the theme song for ABC’s America’s Funniest Home Videos for nearly three decades, as well as performing the ABC TV network theme, and the Disney Channel theme song, “Celebrate Me Home”. She has written and sang on numerous television shows, films and national commercials such as Toyota, McDonald’s, Chevrolet, Taco Bell and Coca Cola, to name a few. Jill’s songs have won numerous awards, including Grammy, CMA, and ACM Awards, ASCAP #1 Awards, ASCAP TV & Film Awards, BMI Multiple Millionaire Broadcast Performances, Canada’s Single of the Year and Video of the Year for Michelle Wright’s “He Would Be Sixteen” and Billboard’s Song of the Year Award for “No One Else on Earth”. Although Jill has enjoyed much commercial success, she has also experienced great loss. She re- fers to this period in her life as “The Lost Decade” because she lost so many of her loved ones, lost herself in the caregiving process, and then fell critically ill and almost lost her own life. During this time, her music changed, her heart was opened more fully, and her songs became the vehicles for her healing. Her new CD, entitled “Heal My Heart”, is an expression of her triumph over loss and the manifestation of her new path in life. Jill is dedicating these songs to all those who have ex- perienced any kind of loss in their lives, hoping once again to prove that music speaks louder than words. Jill combines her commercial success and her healing music in a performance entitled “Hits, Healing & Hope” which is a concert you won’t want to miss! Along with performing for Hospices, Caregivers Associations, Nurs- es Associations, Gilda’s Clubs, and many other organ- izations in the Healthcare industry, she also performs all over the country in theatres, listening rooms, house concerts and churches, creating powerful healing for all those she touches with her music.
