Singer, songwriter, actor

Singer and actor Jesse McCartney has the pop idol good looks, winning smile, and personality to make him a star, but he was not an overnight success. A Broadway vet and a Daytime Emmy-nominated soap opera actor before he could drive, McCartney began his career in entertainment at an early age. With the children's vocal group Sugar Beats to his days in boy band Dream Street, it was really with McCartney's 2004 solo debut Beautiful Soul, and a starring role on the TV show Summerland, that by 2005 made McCartney the new teen dream. With a more mature sound on his sophomore album and more daring acting roles in his future, McCartney (known to many of his fans as Jesse Mac), aims to mature with each project he does. Often called a new Justin Timberlake for the younger generation, like the former *NSYNC star, McCartney never shied away from classic pop music. "Pop is always gonna be ragged on," McCartney told Entertainment Weekly, "but pop will never die."

Born on April 9, 1987, McCartney grew up in Westchester, a suburb of New York. After singing, acting, and dancing in local musicals, at 10 years old, McCartney was performing in the Broadway production of The King and I and later A Christmas Carol (with The Who's Roger Daltry). "I thrived on getting the loudest applause that I could get," McCartney admitted to Teen People about his earliest inclinations of stardom. "Since I was seven, it's been all about making people happy." McCartney excelled at both singing and acting, and pursued both avenues. From 1997 through 2000, with a handful of other children singers, McCartney recorded a number of albums under the moniker Sugar Beats. The Sugar Beats' album collections contained classic rock and pop songs of the '60s and '70s sung by groups of kids. Sugar Beats' 1998 record, How Sweet It Is, earned a Grammy nomination for Best Children's album.

McCartney's next venture was with the grueling soap opera filming schedule. From 1998 through 2001, McCartney played the role of Adam Chandler, Jr., on the ABC long-running soap opera All My Children. McCartney was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series at both the 2001 and 2002 awards. In 1999, McCartney was chosen to be part of the new boy band Dream Street. The quintet released their self-titled debut in 2000 and their follow-up, The Biggest Fan, in 2002, before splitting up. "It was a great stepping stone for me. But that situation [Dream Street] just showed me how much I wanted to have creative input and go the solo artist route," he stated on his website. The singer was more than ready to begin his own career and write his own songs. "I grew up in a very musical household," he told Scholastic News. "My parents were both musicians and singer-songwriters, and we listened to a lot of legendary musicians, from the Beatles to James Taylor to Carole King to Ray Charles. That was engrained in my head early on and built a foundation of music and a taste in music. Eventually I found people I idolized on my own, people like Daniel Bedingfield, Craig David and Sting. They've all inspired me to make music."

The ground for a solo career began in a slew of songs for film soundtracks. In 2004, McCartney's songs could be found on the soundtrack albums to A Cinderella Story, Stuck in the Suburbs, and Ella Enchanted. In the meantime, he was finishing up his solo debut when he got a role on a new WB drama. Just months before his debut album was released, McCartney was reintroduced as Bradin Westerly, a bad boy surfer in the new TV show Summerland. The show only lasted one season, but coupled with the September release of his album, Beautiful Soul, 2004 was the year McCartney had dreamed of. With almost two years of work into his debut, Beautiful Soul topped the Billboard chart at number 15, with sales of over 1.5 million. "It took us two years to make this album," he stated on his website. "Part of that time was spent focusing where I wanted to go musically. In the process, I discovered my voice and the sound I wanted." With the sunny ballads "Beautiful Soul" and "She's No You," the latter which McCartney co-wrote, the teen was soon the new heartthrob on the block, a staple on MTV's TRL program. "… It's light and cheerful, but it has the sleek, sultry grooves that made Justified, [Justin Timberlake] a blockbuster …," wrote All Music Guide's Stephen Thomas Erlewine.

In 2005, McCartney won Teen Choice Awards for Best Crossover Artist, Choice Music Breakout Artist Male, and Choice Music Male Artist, and the video for "Beautiful Soul" was nominated for Best Pop Video at the MTV Video Music Awards. The cancellation of Summerland didn't stop McCartney from keeping up his popularity. After a big Australian fall tour in 2005 with the Backstreet Boys and the following spring, McCartney won the award for Favorite Male Singer at the 2006 Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Awards.

For McCartney's sophomore solo record, the singer wanted to demonstrate that he had matured as a person and as a songwriter. Co-writing nearly every song, in September 2006, McCartney released Right Where You Want Me. The title track served as the record's first single and with its edgier subject matter and heavier beats, McCartney displayed the voice of a young adult who had experienced more in life. He was careful, however, not to alienate his younger fans. With a production team that included John Shanks (Kelly Clark-son, Ashlee Simpson), Marti Frederiksen (Pink), and others, McCartney used Right Where You Want Me as a way to express himself artistically and emotionally, something he was never able to do in his earlier work. Touring around the world and back, McCartney experienced the ups and downs of the entertainment business, learning everywhere he went. "After being on the road … traveling the world, being inspired by different cultures and taking it all in, the songs just started flowing out of me," he said on his website. "I became more aware of people, the world and how it works. It was a challenge and ultimately satisfying to put that to a melody."

In addition to McCartney's music, he plans to take more mature acting roles. In 2006, he filmed the independent film Keith. In his first feature length film role, McCartney took on a darker character, something his young fans might not expect, or should even possibly see. The actor hopes to take on more serious roles, and maybe someday move into directing, while keeping his music going.

Biography

Pop singer and actor Jesse McCartney was a child performer dynamo, singing on Broadway and landing an acting gig on All My Children before even joining his first boy band, a feat that came at the age of 12. Teen poppers Dream Street scored a platinum album with their self-titled debut before spinning off the careers of Chris Trousdale and McCartney himself, who started contributing music to children's films like Cinderella Story ("The Best Day of My Life"), Stuck in the Suburbs ("Good Life"), and Ella Enchanted, for which he performed a version of Elton John's "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" with star Anne Hathaway. McCartney returned to acting in 2004 with a role on the WB teen drama Summerland. He also finished up work on his first solo full-length. "Beautiful Soul" was the album's title track and lead single, and its smooth blend of pop/rock sensibilities punched up with R&B inflections and danceable beats proved to be a template for the record itself. Beautiful Soul was issued in September 2004 and eventually peaked at number 15 on the Billboard 200. McCartney returned in 2005 with a live album documenting his Soul tour. Right Where You Want Me, McCartney's proper sophomore effort, arrived in fall 2006. After co-writing with such in-demand producers as Sean Garrett, J.R. Rotem, the Clutch, and others, McCartney released his third album, Departure, in 2008. He also co-wrote Leona Lewis' mega-hit "Bleeding Love" alongside Ryan Tedder, the frontman of OneRepublic. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi

Music career

1999–2002: Dream Street

In 1999, McCartney joined the American pop boy band Dream Street, and was a member until 2002. Jesse McCartney has described the experience as a good "stepping stone" for his solo career.[2] The group earned a gold record with their debut CD. At fifteen, he began work on a solo career with a local band, featuring musicians Dillon Kondor (guitar), Peter Chema (bass), Katie Spencer (keyboards), Alex Russeku (drums), Karina LaGravinese (background vocals), Sharisse Francisco (background vocals), and under the management of Ginger McCartney and Sherry Goffin Kondor, who co-produced his first album, Beautiful Soul.

After the filming of Keith wrapped, McCartney began working on his second album, Right Where You Want Me, co-writing all but one of the songs featured in it.[5][10] Right Where You Want Me is more mature than his debut, reflecting his musical and personal growth since he recorded his debut album at age 15.[3] Released by Hollywood Records on September 19, 2006, the album reached number 14 on the Billboard 200.[6] The lead single of the album, "Right Where You Want Me", began receiving airplay on July 11, 2006.
