Duawne Starling Explores a "Deeper Faith" on Live Worship Album

Duawne Starling is set to released his new album "Deeper Faith" this Friday on About Faith Media. "Deeper Faith" was recorded live at Bridgeway Community Church in Columbia, MD. Accompanied by the gold standard of band members and some of the music's industry's most sought after supporting vocalists, "Deeper Faith" is alive worship experience. 

Duawne's resume is virtually a who's who in music.  He has worked with artists such as Kirk Franklin, Donnie McClurkin, BeBe and CeCe Winans, Fred Hammond, Nicole Mullen, Michael W. Smith, Sandy Patti, Michael Jackson, Patti Austin, Dolly Parton, Michael McDonald, Kelly Price and countless others. After distinguishing himself as one of the top supporting vocalists in the music industry, it was evident that it was time to launch his solo career.

"I worked as a background artist for ten years before stepping forward as a soloist.  I've traveled with some artists, and recorded in studio with far too many to name. Though, I had been vocally ready for years, when I assessed where I was vocally and compared it to where I was spiritually, the two did not measure up. It is important to me to be balanced in all areas, because the last thing this world needs is just another singer."

Starling's captivating tenor voice earned him the opportunity to sing "We Shall Overcome", the theme song of the Civil Rights Movement, at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Dedication.   Starling also sang the finale at Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy's 77th Birthday Celebration, and he was the first and only man to sing for the Vital Voices Global Leadership Awards.  He performed a Negro Spiritual for Let Freedom Ring; a musical tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and was a featured soloist for the concert series Joyful Sounds: Gospel Across America, all hosted by The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC.

Having released his debut self-titled CD in 2004, not only does Starling have the vocal schooling of years in the studio and on the road, he is also an accomplished songwriter, actor, and former model. For three seasons he co-hosted Magnify Him on the 3ABN Network, and hosted In Your Own Words, an Internet radio show on the Family News Radio station for one season. Three of his musical compositions, "Finally I", recorded by Daryl Coley, "Everything", and "With This Ring" recorded by Starling, are on the chart topping wedding compilation CD "With This Ring" Vols. 1 & 2.  As well, his voice can be heard singing "Imagine A Place", the theme song for Tokyo Disney in Tokyo, Japan.

Starling's Inspirational music shares the triumphs and trials of his journey through life.  His simplistically profound lyrics impact audiences with their unprecedented honesty.  He says, "My gift is God's tool.  In my writing, I always speak from the place of truth.  We are all intrinsically connected so I know that others will relate to what I've experienced.  My purpose is to enlighten, encourage and empower the listener."
