Hello and thank you for considering me for your event! I have sung for several worship events, weddings, funerals, festivals and Charity events. It is my passion to enhance a client's event with quality music and speaking. Professionalism and communication are my two biggest priorities. I am open to learning new material for any event as I am a quick learner. I try to be as fair as possible when providing a quote and am willing to work with any client when it comes to numbers. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you again. Sincerely, Desiree Childs

January 15, 2024We have had the opportunity to work with Dez several times and she has been amazing! She is professional, easy to work with, relates to a wide age range of people and our church always looks forward to seeing her again. Her husband, Steve is a professional audio engineer and does a great job with the mix. I just had the chance to meet her in person this past weekend because she has been coming to our church in a fill in capacity when I am away. She is such a joy. Humble spirit and a phenomenal musician. I highly recommend her!!

February 16, 2021We hired Dez for our wedding first dance. This was a surprise for my husband as we always loved going to see live music. Dez learned the song and performed it beautifully. Her version of the song has become our favorite. It created such a special moment for our Wedding considering the chaotic time that we planned during a pandemic. Dez was literally the only detail that went unchanged in the planning and I truly appreciate her commitment to sing this special song. It was such a sweet memory that we are so grateful for today. She is incredibly talented and has a voice of an angel. Our guests were so impressed with her range in her voice and it was nice to give them a little performance along with our dance. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a little twist on the regular first dance. I know she also does cocktail hours and other longer gigs too! Thank you again!!
