Gospel’s Yolanda Adams will bring her inspirational vision to Hard Rock Live at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino

Since her 1988 debut, the acclaimed and uplifting Just As I Am, Yolanda Adams has been wowing gospel audiences all over the world. In 2009, Billboard magazine named her the #1 Gospel Artist of the last decade.

The eldest of six siblings, her pioneering spirit and boundless optimism soon became her trademark. It was while she served as a lead singer with the Southeast Inspirational Choir that Yolanda caught the eye of composer/producer Thomas Whitfield who produced her first album, Just As I Am for Sound of Gospel Records. Soon, she was hailed as the most versatile contemporary gospel singer since Aretha Franklin.

Her follow-up albums, 1991’s Through the Storm and 1993’s Save the World won several Stellar awards, Gospel’s highest accolade. More Than A Melody (1995) propelled her into the world of R&B Gospel, with hit singles such as “Gotta Have Love,” and “Open Arms.” The disc won a Soul Train Lady of Soul award, earned her a Grammy nomination, and unforgettable live performance spot on the 1996 Soul Train Music Awards telecast. Yolanda…Live in Washington, snagged her yet another Stellar award and another Grammy nomination.

Other releases include “Mountain High…Valley Low,” “The Experience,” “Believe,” and “Day by Day.” Adams’ most recent release is “Becoming.”

The singer, whose love of children’s causes is almost as legendary as her singing, eagerly embraces the social responsibility that comes with the blessings of success. She has served as a spokesperson for the FILA Corporation’s Operation Rebound program which addresses the concerns of inner city school children.

The gospel great is also host of her namesake The Yolanda Adams Morning Show, the largest nationally syndicated inspirational morning show in the country that airs weekdays from 6-10 a.m. EST.
