Epiphany
Epiphany is a natural. God-created and God-blessed with the gifts of song and written word. She discovered a love for the art of vocal music in the 5th grade when she was selected to sing, “Can’t Get a Man with a Gun” in the musical Annie Get Your Gun. Since then, she’s been driven by God and His purpose to use her gifts as a testimony to His glory and an inspiration to the world.
Epiphany spent her teens honing her vocal talent as a member of R&B girl group, N-tyse, while also studying classical music at the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts.

Epiphany was requested to perform by 2002-2003’s Miss America and was a featured artist for Dr. J’s All-Star Weekend Birthday Bash.
Epiphany’s music is experimentally inspirational. Refusing to be cast into one genre, she uses her music as an exploration into all styles of music, including pop, R&B, neo-soul, funk, Hip-Hop, and folk. As evidenced in her single, “Fall Back” a mix of folk melodies and Hip-Hop beats, Epiphany’s music is always a testimony to her struggles, her joy, her passion, and the things around her that inspire her art.
