Deidra Hughes was raised in a Christian home by parents who both shared the Gospel through music, so it is not surprising that Deidra started singing when she was only four years old. However, it wasn’t until she was 15 that Deidra knew that God had called her to dedicate her life to ministry through music. What makes Deidra’s story so incredible is that her mom, Joleen, was diagnosed with a brain tumor and given only months to live ~ all while she was pregnant with Deidra… We are very excited to report that not only did Joleen live long enough to give birth to Deidra, she also had two other children and is alive and well today! Deidra’s life is truly a miracle that she does not take for granted!
Deidra has been in ministry for several years, and began her career in the well-known vocal group TRUTH under the direction of Roger Breland, before moving on to minister with such artists as Melissa Greene of Avalon, Anthony Evans (son of Dr. Tony Evans), Switchfoot, ZoeGirl, Rebecca St. James, Avalon, Kirk Franklin, CeCe Winans, Priscilla Shirer, Thelma Wells, Kevin White, Perry Stone, Fred Price and Dwight Thompson. Deidra has toured with Dove Award Winner, Natalie Grant and has had the opportunity to sing with Natalie for Women of Faith Conferences nationwide.
Deidra ha
s a heart for church ministry and is dedicated to true worship. Deidra says, “My heart is to minister within the body of Christ… My passion is to see our churches whole again fulfilling God’s ultimate plan to spread His Word. I hope not to just present a concert, but to present the One who is truly famous and that is JESUS!”
