Brenda’s is the remarkable story of a girl with God-given talent that took her first from poverty to international superstardom, and then onwards to the rarified ranks of living music industry legends.
Brenda Lee’s tremendous impact on the history of recorded music is easily recognized by reading just a few highlights from her outstanding career. She was signed to a major label recording contract at age 11; she had sold over a million records and became a teen rock icon by the age of 15; she became the best-selling female artist by the age of 21; she has
sold over 100 million records worldwide; and the list of accolades goes on and on.
Some of Brenda’s signature songs include such hits as "I'm Sorry", "Break It to Me Gently", "Sweet Nothin's", "I Want to Be Wanted", and "Rockin' around the Christmas Tree",
which has become a seasonal standard nationwide.
Brenda has been inducted into both the
Country Music Hall of Fame and the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
For her next album, Brenda Lee has turned her attention back to the music that helped build the foundation of her life… to music that glorifies God and brings back memories of a childhood long before stardom when she, as a child of 8 or 9, sang regularly with the Masterworkers Quartet in churches and spirited all-night sings throughout the south.
Joining Brenda on this lively inspirational album are just a few of her many faithful friends, who also just happen to be some of the biggest names in mainstream music today.
