Become Repost Partners: https://soundcloud.com/debraprice   Gospel Recording artist Since 2000 Debra’s been empowering and encouraging women through music.   Our CREATOR & FATHER has thoughts of Peace for You not evil, HE has a purpose & plan for Your life.  Jeremiah 29:11.

Dee has a passion for the ministry of music and a heart to follow God and she is the original writer of her songs. She began organizing musical youth groups at twelve years old and sung songs to glorify God from city to city traveling to support the Cooper Ministries.  While attending her university, she performed for the Spring Extravaganzas to get the feel of the stage.  For five years, she sung with The Durden Singers. To her credit is the song, "We Give the Glory" on their CD entitled "God Sent Me An Angel".

Dee's first single was released in 2003 entitled "The Lord is My Shepherd". BMG Music Publishing signed an agreement with her for the Braxton Brothers music composition for the song.  She completed her full CD and entitled it "The Lord is My Shepherd LIVE". It was recorded at the Evangelist Temple Church in Houston, Texas by The Good Shepherd Production.  For this CD,  Dee has taken her gospel roots and produced a contemporary style of music, an infusion of R&B, jazz and soul influences. She has a unique perspective on what all the different facets of her congregation would enjoy listening to, from the traditional and conservative to the young and contemporary. Durden is able to spread the word through her unique style and breathe new life into gospel music.

Durden sticks with tradition on "The Lord is My Shepherd". She takes a well-known and conventional hymn and takes a new approach by using a contemporary arrangement. Because of the song's beauty and message, it is one of Durden's most beloved tracks; not to mention it is the song that originally inspired her album. She possesses an emotional and persuasive vocal, while being supported by an electric keyboard and smooth sax that is reminiscent of 90's light R&B. The song is upbeat and light, with Durden's expressive quality keeping it together. On "Get Over It" Durden shows more of a soulful style, creating a modern baseline to support her compassion and driving lyrics. She expresses the need to literally "get over it" and move on with life after facing difficult obstacles. Durden's voice is like a support mechanism, allowing the listener to realize that throughout life's challenges, there are great things on the other side - one must just believe. She sings with heavy regard for what her listeners need and want to hear creating a vehicle for the underlying message of life, love and happiness.

Dee is featured on a NEW CD Compilation with Florida's 2BlessedMusic!  She was also judged and endorsed by the prestigious organization, The Christian Music Presenters of Nashville, Tennessee ( christianmusicpresenters ).  She performs in all areas of ministries, spiritual functions and special occasions with a Bachelor's Degree in Business from Sam Houston State where she organized and hosted several workshops, seminars and conferences at the Criminal Justice Center.  To enhance her work in the ministry, she also holds ministerial license with a degree in Church and Biblical studies.  Her music is sung with sincerity, understanding and experience.  She believes in being real to God, herself, and the people of God.
