CeCe Winans
It's virtually impossible to talk about CeCe Winans without acknowledging her artistic influence on an entire musical genre and the groundbreaking achievements she's accomplished over the past two decades. Blessed with one of the music industry's greatest voices, CeCe has crossed all stylistic, social and age barriers with her inspirational delivery and powerful music.
CeCe's personality, inviting warmth and genuine love for God transcends her music and has earned her millions of loyal fans around the world. Her industry accolades, nearly too numerous to count, include five Grammy Awards, 18 Gospel Music Association Dove Awards and several gold and platinum-selling albums. CeCe's collection of Top Ten R&B radio hits include “Count on Me,” her powerhouse duet with Whitney Houston, from the multi-platinum Waiting to Exhale soundtrack. The multi-format smash single sold 2 million copies and hit the Top Ten on pop, R&B and adult contemporary charts. Her successful music career has also landed her in the national media spotlight with television appearances on “Oprah,” “The Tonight Show,” “The Rosie O'Donnell Show,” “Live with Regis & Kathie Lee”, the White House and many more.
Following the release of her critically-acclaimed, gold certified, Grammy-winning 2001 album, self-titled CeCe Winans, CeCe wowed packed out venues across the nation, visiting major markets on a co-billed tour with gospel great Donnie McClurkin, followed later by the crowd-pleasing Winans Family Tour with her celebrated musical family. CeCe donned her acting hat in 2002 for special guest-starring roles on The WB Network's “7th Heaven” and PAX Television's “Doc,” continuing to explore new territory in her expanding career.
“It's always a lot of fun when I get to experiment in different arenas,” CeCe admits. “These were great experiences and gave me the opportunity to meet some incredible people. It's always humbling to see when doors begin to open and allow you to reach an even broader audience than before.”
