There is another ETA - Evelyn Turrentine-Agee and she is back! Also known as Gods Woman, EVELYNs brand new album GO THROUGH has just been released on LIGHT RECORDS. Produced by the talented ASAPH WARD (Twinkie Clark, Kim Burrell, Virtue), its the follow-up to the Stellar-Award nominated Its Already Done.
I wanted this record to demonstrate that while I am a quartet singer, Im more than just that, says Evelyn. It was my desire to have this project demonstrate some versatility in my ministry. Her favorite, I Am Yours is her self-proclaimed love song featuring a duet with Bishop Neal Robinson. It is my _expression to God, emotionally stated by Evelyn, I am giving him all I have for all he has done.
Other soon-to-be classics include of course the title track Go Through and Thank You; a new song, new version of the praise phrase. For her fans, they can never get enough of this so Evelyn has determined to have a new song and version of thank you appear on every album of her career.
Evelyn is a native of St. Louis, Missouri now living in Detroit, Michigan. This energetic, multifaceted lady wears many hats daily. She is a wife, mother (11), grandmother (50+), great-grandmother (2), homemaker, business owner and operator, evangelist, and recording artist who spends much time attending to her elderly parents. She manages her own career and spends many hours ministering to and praying for family members and others daily.
Evelyn is no stranger to gospel music as she has been singing all her life. She recorded with local groups and as a solo artist on major label compilation projects as well as her own solo album on CGI Records. After 11 years of being absent from the major gospel music scene, in January, 2000 Evelyn launched a new record project, God Did It, featuring the group she founded in 1972, The Warriors. God Did It, released on Evelyns own label, WOS Records, has ministered to all, young and old. Since its release, God Did It has been among one of the top requested songs on radio stations throughout the US and also receiving major rotation on top syndicated programs including Walt Baby Loves Gospel Traxx, Inspirations Across America, the Russ Parr Show, the Tom Joiner Show, Sheridan Gospel Networks The Light, ABC Radio Networks Rejoice, and Radio One Gospel Network. The full-length album, God Did It, has also experienced great success at retail charting on Billboard Magazines Top Gospel Album charts for over 30 weeks. Gospel media has not missed out on God Did It phenomena. Publications and columns such as Gospel Truth Magazine, D. Blackmons Gospel Insider, Urban Network Magazine, Billboard Magazines Inside the Spirit, Gospel Today, Gospel Industry Today, Behind the Scene and Urban Networks Inspired magazines have all given recognition to this anointed, talented woman of God and her music ministry. In October, 2002 Evelyn joined the Atlanta International Records (AIR Gospel) family and released her freshman project with that company, Its Already Done. In June of 2004 Evelyn signed and became a member of the Compendia Music GroupLight Records roster with her first record release Go Through in March, 2005.
As a result of the success of God Did It, requests for Evelyn at concerts, revivals, conventions, television shows, and conferences have been staggering. Evelyn has not wavered in her commitment to spread Gods word with the opportunity His favor has given her by sometimes making over 5 personal appearances weekly and practically non-stop. Whenever Evelyn is asked how she has been able to achieve such instant recognition after being away from gospel music for over 11 years, she will simply reply, GOD DID IT.
