Angelique "Angie" Winans was born in the spring of 1968. She came into a family filled with a love for gospel music, and for children -- she was baby number nine out of ten. As a child Angie learned to play the piano and to sing, first performing at home, with and for family, and then in church. By the time she hit her teens, her brothers Michael, Ron, Carvin, and Marvin Winans were making a name in the music world as a signing group known as the Winans.
When Angie was 15 she began performing professionally as a background vocalist for BeBe & CeCe. Sister Debbie Winans, the youngest of the siblings, joined in also, In 1993, after a decade of serving as background singers, Angie and Debbie formed their own duo team. With a signed deal from Capitol Records, the twosome completed a self-titled debut album that year. Good reviews, some mainstream - type tunes, and time touring as an opening act for Whitney Houston helped the sisters grows a quick and loyal fan base in both the R&B and gospel genres.
Debbie Winans
Debbie Winans is a Christian artist who has toured around the world, performing as one half of the dynamic duo Angie and Debbie Winans. Their first self-titled album, Angie & Debbie, landed them an opening act spot for Whitney Houston's Bodyguard Tour. But her start in performing was as one of the incredible "BGVs" (background vocalists) for the brother sister-duo BeBe & CeCe Winans, along with the likes of Whitney Houston.
She is the 10th child of the First Family of Gospel - The Winans. Debbie resides in Nashville, Tennessee, with her husband of 26 years and their three sons. Outside of her music, her heart is to minister the Good News of the Gospel to the lost. She serves alongside her husband, Pastor James Lowe, who is the Senior Pastor of Bethel World Outreach Church in Brentwood, TN. When she is not doing music, you will find her pouring into the next generation and serving her city.
In her downtime, Debbie loves spending time with her family and investing in them. You can find her under the Friday night lights, cheering on the sidelines of her sons' high school football games on any given Friday in the fall. She also enjoys relaxing at home, watching movies, or playing games with family and friends.
