Award-winning gospel twosome, BeBe and CeCe Winans, are gearing up for a much-anticipated reunion album and tour after more than 13 years apart. The brother and sister team officially kicked off their reunion with a performance with Melinda Doolittle on American Idol's sixth season finale. They are the first gospel artists to perform 'Idol.'
BeBe and CeCe, two of ten siblings of one of gospel music's first families, began their careers in 1987. Over the years, they have won five Grammy Awards, eight Dove Awards, two NAACP Image Awards, one Soul Train Award and over a dozen Stellar Awards. In 1994, BeBe & CeCe parted ways to pursue successful solo careers.
BeBe pursued his musical passions with a number of solo albums and added acting to his repertoire with appearances on stage and in films. Of this newest chapter in their career BeBe says, "I'm grateful for BeBe & CeCe's past accomplishments. But I'm so excited about coming back together and blazing new trails of hope into the hearts of people all around the world."
CeCe, who released seven award-winning platinum and gold certified albums, states, "I'm very excited that the time has finally come for BeBe and I to reunite and encourage the world with uplifting, soul-changing music."
