Even before he could talk, Jack Cassidy was singing—capturing the attention of his musical parents with his rare talent. “He was 2 years old, singing in key with music. It was tough to pick up the words, but the melody was right on,” says mom Krista Cassidy.

Before long, Jack was singing in public. And whether in a leading role in a musical or as a soloist at a church service—his pure and soothing voice began captivating audiences around his hometown of Maple Grove, Minn., and beyond.

Jack took to the stage early, singing with the Cassidy Brothers—a popular Minnesota group of brothers consisting of Jack’s father (Joe) and uncles—at the annual Cassidy Family Christmas and St. Patrick's Day shows at Ascension Church in North Minneapolis. The shows also included mom Krista, grandfather Jim Cassidy, cousins, aunts and uncles. 


At age 9, as a Fourth Grader, Jack had his first musical theater experience in a lead role, as JoJo in a senior high production of “Seussical the Musical.” Then came the title role in “Oliver” for two different community theaters, followed by more musical theater.

Jack is a frequent soloist at his church Saint Vincent DePaul in Osseo, Minn., and also the vocalist for the Maple Grove, Minn., Angel of Hope chapter Friends of the Angel.

Looking up to singers including Michael Buble, Paul McCartney and Grandpa Jim Cassidy—Jack now says he wants to share his gift with others.
