Here’s more about Valerie.
* She’s a gospel and Christian artist and mother of three from Birmingham, Alabama.
* She’s currently based in New Braunfels, Texas and is former worship director of Church of the Highlands.
* Valerie previously released music as Valerie T. Smith, including a four-song EP called “Dreams” from 2016 that’s still available on streaming sites.
* In 2020, Valerie told Voyage Atlanta that she started singing in church between the ages of 5 and 7 and “never stopped.”
* By the time she was a teenager, she was part of a girl group, had learned to play piano and was leading songs in church.
* She recorded her first solo — “I’m Glad You Got Here” — with the University of Alabama at Birmingham gospel choir while attending school there.
* In 2020, Valerie was featured in a PBS film called “Dreams of Hope” about a historic concert at a Birmingham church, held 50 years after a hate crime in which four black girls were killed there.
* Valerie has also performed and directed background vocals for a number of artists, including Yolanda Adams, India Arie, Robin Thicke, LeAnn Rimes and former American Idol runner-up Bo Bice.
* The Voice has aired a small snippet of her audition in a promotional ad. Enough to indicate that she earned a spot on the show. And enough to hear Dan + Shay tell her she’s a background singer no more.
* Valerie has also started teaching an online course for independent musicians called “Indie Is My Major.”
* In that 2020 interview, Valerie says “I’m not just a performer, I’m a servant of the Lord on a mission to change the world with my heart, not just the art.” Check out her impressive vocals on the TikTok post below.

@valerietwebb I sang this Gospel Song to my husband @mrbylaw last Friday (7.29.22) during our R&B duets tribute show at @perfectnotelive in Birmingham, AL and though it's a gospel song. It was my song of love to him and God. I suprised him with this song during the show. Thank you @tyetribbettmusic for this. It's still a fav. (I do not own the rights to this song) #love #lovesong #coupleswhosing #INeedYou #TyeTribbett #RobAndVal #BookingNow ♬ original sound – Val T Webb🎶
