They entered the mainstream in 2005 with the arrival of their acclaimed sophomore effort, Celebrate, which included the chart-topping title cut. <a href="spotify:artist:0c86qGuVZWOdEl7Wdr6g4f">Winn</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:0p4g6nQShPxtibUdD45Euz">Jones-Moffett</a> spent the next several years charting successful solo careers but reunited in 2021 and unveiled the singles "God Can Heal It" and "Now I Know."

<a href="spotify:artist:0c86qGuVZWOdEl7Wdr6g4f">Winn</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:0p4g6nQShPxtibUdD45Euz">Jones-Moffet</a> met in the early '90s while performing with the Memphis-based gospel choir <a href="spotify:artist:7qslbiVXD9O39FJ6CuE2Mp">the Voices of Binghampton</a> (later known as <a href="spotify:artist:07q39ytxmbaaiMaxxbqV3O">Kevin Davidson & the Voices</a>). The pair left the group in 1995 and began operating as a duo, and issued their Stellar Award-winning debut, The Healing Starts Right There, in 2001. They inked a deal with <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Word+Records%22">Word Records</a> ahead of the release of their sophomore outing, 2004's Celebrate, which soared to the upper echelons of the Billboard Gospel charts. Shortly after that, the duo parted ways, with <a href="spotify:artist:0c86qGuVZWOdEl7Wdr6g4f">Winn</a> launching his own label and releasing a string of successful singles and albums. <a href="spotify:artist:0p4g6nQShPxtibUdD45Euz">Jones-Moffett</a> also blazed a triumphant solo path that resulted in a Grammy nomination for her 2009 debut, Renewed. In 2021 the duo reconvened to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album, and issued the single "God Can Heal It." Later that year, they teamed up with the Texas-based gospel quartet <a href="spotify:artist:3UZQmKr3fkPDCdIRtdX1RV">the Walls Group</a>, and released the spirited and soulful "Now I Know." ~ James Christopher Monger
