Jane Marczewski Biography – Jane Marczewski Wiki

Jane Marczewski (born Jane Kristen Marczewski), known professionally as Nightbirde, was an American singer-songwriter. She rose to fame after winning the Golden Buzzer on “America’s Got Talent” in June 2021 with the hit song It’s OK which charted No. 1 on iTunes and charted on Billboard. Her other top songs include New Year’s Eve, Girl in a Bubble and Brave.

Marczewski started songwriting at the age of 6, when she helped her mother compose an original piece about the Christmas star, a song that she later performed for more than 800 people at their rural Ohio church.

She first recorded her original music in 2012, a three-song acoustic EP called Lines. In 2013, she released Ocean & Sky, an organic and optimistic 6-song folk EP. After a move to Nashville in 2015, she took a sabbatical from writing and performing. In 2017, she was preparing to release new music under the pop moniker “Nightbirde”, when she was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer.

Nightbirde went into remission in 2018, and soon after, hit the studio to record “Girl in a Bubble,” a nod to the alien experience of illness. The song was released in the spring of 2019, and that year, she opened for Grammy-award-winning artist, Tori Kelly.

Jane Marczewski America’s Got Talent

During her audition on “America’s Got Talent” in June 2021, Marczewski revealed she was fighting cancer and that it had spread to her lungs, spine and liver.

“Last time I checked, I had some cancer in my lungs, my spine and my liver,” she told the audience. “It’s important that everyone knows I’m so much more than the bad things that happened to me.”

“I have a 2% chance of survival but 2% is not 0%,” Marczewski told the audience. “Two percent is something and I wish people knew how amazing it is.”

She performed an original song, “It’s OK,” which moved the judges to tears. The performance earned her the Golden Buzzer, enabling her to advance. Marczewski withdrew from the show in August, citing her declining health.

She wrote at the time: “Sharing my heart with the world on AGT has been an honor and a dream come true. My point of view this summer has been astounding. What a miracle that the pain I’ve walked through can be reworked into beauty that makes people all over the world open their eyes wider.

“Since my audition, my health has taken a turn for the worse and the fight with cancer is demanding all of my energy and attention. I am so sad to announce that I won’t be able to continue forward on this season of AGT. Life doesn’t always give breaks to those that deserve it—but we knew that already.

“Thank you for all your support, it means the world to me. Stay with me, I’ll be better soon. I’m planning my future, not my legacy. Pretty beat up, but I’ve still got dreams.”
