Discography Artist: Adrianne Archie

Known for captivating the mind, soul and spirit of listeners every place she extends her angelic voice, Miss. Adrianne Yvette Archie, 23, has developed an untainted presence and manner of singing, in which she effortlessly contradicts any doubt that she “has what it takes” to thrive in today’s music industry. Uh, huh, yep and guess what ya’ll? She’s from Kentucky! You will notice her ability to quicken the hearts of many and admire her dedication to continuing as a singer/song-writer even with the aptitude of many gospel, rhythm and blues, neo-soul, and jazz performers. Adrianne unconventionally integrates each of those genres of music into her own unique style of singing, in order to shape original and traditional tunes into memorable melodies. Along with the amazing, mouth dropping production of Joel L. Goodwin, AD can most definitely be considered a pillar in what is called, inspirational soul. She is the next breath of fresh air we will be able to take in from the great sea of vocalists today.

Adrianne Archie - HTHAELHH (2004)
Words alone can't explain the other sounds-the climbing up the musical scale, the twisting and turning of notes until they are something new altogether, the runs that seem infinite, the notes that start in the diaphragm and dance somewhere between a field holler and a grandmother's hum, the quiet notes sang in a clear falsetto that grow rocks in the throat and make the tears fall free. HTHAELHH is an example of what music mingled with ministry can be.
"He That Hath an Ear, Let Him Hear" (HTHAELHH), a reference to Revelations 2:29, and 3:22, is a fitting title for Adrianne Archie's debut album. Gone is the responsibility of the artist to shape her sound to fit the homogenized group called "audience." Simply put, those who have spiritual ears will hear what the spirit says. Moreover, those who have musical ears will find the messenger so, so easy to love. HTHAELHH is a genius musical revision of church service, in groove mode! (Can you say "The Roots?") The first interlude is a welcome song, which evokes the hugging and handshaking that occurs during black church fellowship. The album also includes devotionals that can be called anything but standard, and songs that pack the power of sermons. The album even ends with an invitation to salvation, in which Archie sings, "Why not take a chance? A chance on love?" © CD Baby

Adrianne Archie - Warm Winter (2006)
With 11 of some of the most diverse seasonal tracks ever heard, Archie and Joel Goodwin, producer, give us all a Christmas gift we won't forget. Who would ever think "Angels We Have Heard On High," what Archie calls "Gloria," could ever be a deep-funk driven tune that's sure to make you get up and "dance if ya' reborn"!? "Do Adore" an inspirational worship song, displays Archie's impeccable presence and ability to embrace many styles of worship. Warm Winter includes 9 original tracks and 2 traditionals all written and performed by the Archie-Goodwin duo. Warm Winter is hott, hands down!! Jazz, R&B, gospel, hip-hop, they give it all to us, again! © CD Baby
