There’s no denying the powerhouse talent of Tasha Cobbs. Just ask the fans who propelled Grace—the singer/songwriter’s major label debut—to No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Gospel Albums chart.
 
One Grammy, three Dove and three Stellar Gospel Awards later, the live album still remains near the top of the Gospel Albums chart. In turn, the project spun off back-to-back No. 1 singles on the Hot Gospel Songs chart: “Break Every Chain” and “For Your Glory,” the latter of which counts more than 54 weeks on the chart. Through stirring vocals, a singular passion for ministry and an unerring musical ear, Cobbs has become one of gospel music’s undeniable breakout stars.
 
Now the singer/songwriter is following up her amazing breakthrough with “Jesus Saves,” the lead single from her highly anticipated Motown Gospel album One Place Live. The Cobbs-penned song is part of a first-week sales trifecta that also included the album tracks “Fill Me Up” and “Overflow,” respectively No. 2 and No. 3 on Billboard’s Gospel Digital Songs chart. 
 
The three new songs are also a strong portent of what’s in store from the next chapter in Cobbs’ burgeoning career. Recorded at Redemption Church in Greenville, South Carolina before nearly 3,000 worshippers, One Place Live reunites the singer with label-mate and fellow award-winning gospel star Vashawn Mitchell, the production force behind Grace.
 
“We’ve known each other for years,” says Cobbs of the pair’s creative intuition. “Recording a major-scale project for the first time, I felt comfortable working with someone I knew. So, with Grace still in the top 10 at the time, I said to Vashawn, ‘Let’s do it again.’”
 
As with Grace, One Place Live pulsates with kinetic energy from start to finish—fully capturing the raw power and emotion of the live worship experience. Armed with true-to-life songs that always speak to the heart, Cobbs and her vibrant vocals can’t help but spark a soul-raising chain reaction.

“They are what we call songs of the Lord,” explains Cobbs. “I can be leading worship or getting dressed for worship and a song will simply fall on me. Some songs are just moment songs. Or maybe just four or five words will come. Then I’ll go home and finish it.”

I was born and raised in Florida with the sounds of Motown and old big band acts jazz, blues you name it! My parents had quite a love for music, and with that sparked my interest in the art. On my 11th birthday my father bought me my firsts guitar and from there I knew I wanted to create music, this wasn't just a hobby it was my passion. Throughout my high school years I played the jazz band playing guitar, even managed to have a few projects with friends along the way. In 2005 I created Apollo Entertainment. Moving more to the engineering side and running a small indie label I have decided to finally take the time for myself to work on my solo project using the 23 years of experience I have and over a total of 60 years of experience from amazing musicians that are helping with this project. 416 will be released Q4 of 2014

"Money and fame is not my goal, to touch and be heard is the reason we were all given our talent. Music is the true universal language."
