McShee's musical career began as a soloist in British folk clubs in the mid-1960s. After working with guitarist John Renbourn, she co-founded Pentangle.
Pentangle rapidly established itself as one of the earliest exponents of the British folk rock movement. However, they drew audiences from the rock and pop worlds as well as traditionalists. The original band played a mixture of ballads, blues, and jazz, often blending these genres in the same piece.
In 1994, McShee formed a new band named Jacqui McShee's Pentangle which, with a few personnel changes, is still performing today.
In 1995 Jacqui performed as a session singer, along with her husband, drummer Gerry Conway, on the album "Active in The Parish" by the singer-songwriter David Hughes. It was voted the Q magazine "Album of the Year". Hughes is also the author of "The Fairport Tour". In 1998 she teamed up with Ulrich Maske to record "The Frog and the Mouse" and "The Cat and the Fiddle". These two books were designed to help German children to learn to speak English.
Out on GJS Records in 2005, Feoffees' Lands is the third studio project since Passe Avant (1998) and About Thyme (1995). Material includes traditional folk song arrangements, jazz standards and new compositions.

2021....... just discovered Pentangle....... wtf have I been missing ! What a voice !
@reneharde3459
check out their early stuff, you will not be disappointed
@jonathansimmonds5784
@Rene Harde I sometimes feel sorry for younger generations, they missed out on SO much good music in their teens, we Boomers had such a variety we could legitimately listen to.
@garyomalley816
I've just discovered them .... my goodness...I close my eyes n see rolling English hills,apple orchards n winding rivers filled with a simple life .... lineage noone can erase
@TheBehindtheMask

Her voice is as pure and ethereal as ever.
@rorybell2161
Her voice is just... ethereal. It cuts and I can't think of an alternative. There are many imitators but this is the gold standard.
@patrickregan3302
So adoreable!!!! First heard her music on public radio here in the states decades ago!!!! And of course the entire band..
Thanx to the Wonderful Fiona Ritchie of Scotland and her 1 hour radio series called “The thistle and Shamrock” ❤
