CeCe Winans and her music have always had a broad reach. Born the eighth of ten children in what is literally a musical dynasty – headed up by Mom & Pop Winans and including, among her siblings, famed gospel quartet The Winans (brothers Marvin, Carvin, Ronald, and Michael) – CeCe began eight years of recording as a duo with her brother BeBe Winans in ’85 with their platinum “Lord Lift Us Up” and its hit title track released on PTL.
Their self-titled major label debut, “BeBe and CeCe Winans,” on Capitol in ’87 initiated a series of five albums (including “Heaven,” “Different Lifestyles,” “First Christmas“, and “Relationships“) and a string of R&B, pop, gospel and contemporary Christian hits.
Topping Christian radio charts were “For Always,” “Don’t Cry For Me” and “Count It All Joy,” with the first two garnering CeCe Grammys for Best Soul Gospel, Female in ’87 and ’89 respectively. 1991’s “Different Lifestyles” not only went Platinum, but also garnered the duo Grammy, Dove and Image Awards and two No. 1 hit singles: “I’ll Take You There” and “Addictive Love” (the former selling gold and the latter platinum).

In ’95, BeBe and CeCe each decided to move into solo territory. CeCe’s first venture, “Alone In His Presence” captured yet another Grammy for Best Contemporary Soul Gospel Album.

Three more solo albums followed: the Christmas album “His Gift,” “Everlasting Love” and ’99’s award-winning “Alabaster Box.”
Her accumulated award count for a decade and a half of recording totals four Grammys, ten Doves, five Stellar Awards, three Image Awards, two Motor City Music Awards, and one Soul Train Music Award.
She has won numerous awards throughout her career, including multiple Grammy Awards.
