Cynthia Jones is the undeniable, soulful powerhouse that has become a growing buzz in the gospel music industry. The Kingdom Records recording artist brings a smooth vintage soul style of music that compliments her soulful melodious vocals.
The Raleigh, North Carolina native is the daughter of a minister, an active member of the Upper Room Church of God in Christ, under the leadership of Dr. Patrick L Wooden Sr., and also serves on the Board of Directors of “Passage Home” which is an organization that provides housing for families in transition between homelessness or incarceration to self-sufficiency, while singing, writing, booking and running her label, Angel Dove Records.
Cynthia understands the importance of learning as much of the music business as possible. She released three albums under her label, all of which were instrumental in creating her growing buzz. She has gained the respect in the industry as another one of gospel’s hard working women.
Over the years, she has nurtured a national following from performing on some of Gospel's major tours and concerts such as the "Hero Tour" featuring Kirk Franklin, "The One Church Tour" featuring Smokie Norful, the "Night of Praise and Worship Concert" featuring Fred Hammond and Martha Munizzi and most recently the CIAA "Gospel Soulabration" concert in Charlotte, North Carolina with John P. Kee and Cece Winans. Her followers from the Christian community of neo soul music lovers appreciate having this style of music with uncompromising lyrics. Her music has been graciously received through NABFEME (National Association of Black Female Executives in Music & Entertainment) Women Who Jam.
The award winning Female vocalist of the Year was working on her fourth CD when she was offered a deal with Kingdom Records, which is home to the #1 Billboard Charting Praise and Worship choir, Shekinah Glory Ministry. They were excited about Jones, of which they affectionately call Lady Soul. They didn’t waste any time preparing the release of the first single, “Gotta Soul” from the “Gotta Soul” CD due to launch on April 29, 2008. Without a doubt and to no surprise, the single took radio by a phenomenal storm, as one of the most requested songs on the R&R Charts and placing at #74 on the BDS Charts, then climbing an unprecedented 30 spots to #44 within one week.
Once you have heard not only the music of Cynthia Jones, but the uncompromising lyricism of Cynthia Jones, it is evident to see what makes her and her music so powerful, thought provoking, soul searching, convicting and converting to the heart, mind and soul of listeners from all walks of life.
