Adoration
This popular gospel duet has
been around for about 12 years touching the hearts
and lives of those in various church congregations as
well as those in the business and political arenas all
over the British Virgin Islands. Tracia and Tarriesha were always a part of each other’s
lives. As they were next door neighbors, their
families were close friends who helped to raise each
other’s children. They also attended the
same church and sang in the youth choir often as lead
soloists.
After some time they realized
that they both shared an intrinsic love for music and
greatly desired to establish a music ministry together.
“Adoration” as they would soon call themselves,
came about as they sought to describe what their ministry
was all about; to use their talents in ways that will
only glorify the One who gave it to them. The
ladies wasted no time in their new pursuit and spent
even more time performing as a duet. Also, as
a step toward the dream of one day releasing their own
album, they began composing songs on a regular basis.
In November 2003, Adoration
entered a theme song competition for local gospel radio
station ZKING and won a recording contract with TML
Studios of the BVI. Elated about their achievement,
Adoration composed, recorded and released a 3-track
Christmas album entitled “Lamb of God” just
in time for the celebrations that same year.
Exactly one year later the
ladies completed the recording of their 11-track album
“Symphony of Praise” which they proudly
released in May of 2004. Now Adoration’s
mission is to take their music ministry to a whole new
level by visiting the sister islands of the BVI, USVI,
other islands of the Caribbean Region and the US Mainland,
proclaiming the love of Jesus Christ through fellowship
and song. |
