Coppola was a solo singer, whose most successful single was "Legend of a Cowgirl", from the 1997 album Chupacabra.[3] Adam Pallin is the programmer/producer of the duo.
In 2008, Coppola and Pallin signed a contract with S-Curve, an independent label owned by Steve Greenberg, to issue an album.[4] This coincided with the duo's television debut on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.[4] Album promotion is by Nabbr, a company that has created viral video campaigns for Justin Timberlake and Amy Winehouse.[5] Coppola, originally signed as a solo act with Columbia Records, plans to approach the music business differently with Little Jackie, bolstered by her experiences.[6] She also sees Little Jackie as an opportunity to get back into pop.[7]
On August 3, 2011 Little Jackie digitally released their sophomore album, Made 4 TV, on Bandcamp.com, a site that allows artists release their music and merch directly to their fans.
