Seated on the banks of the Mississippi River, Quincy - known as the "Gem City" - is home to recording artist, *Resha!*. Unfamiliar as to why Quincy is dubbed the " Gem City " leaves most in question - until now.
As a baby, Brenda Humphrey - *Resha's!* mother - remembers *Resha!* forever humming. Always found standing next to the record player, *Resha!* began developing a love for music and the church became the vehicle used to develop her not fully formed, yet powerful voice. "Because I sang so loud, I was asked to sing in the choir and later on the worship team very young!" notes *Resha!* in a very modest tone. It wasn't long after that opportunities began seeking psalmist, *Resha!*. In fact, later that year during a choir concert, she was invited to sing as a background vocal to Vanessa Bell Armstrong.
Always aware of her call, *Resha!* began doing the work of the ministry as a teenager, preaching her first message at the age of 14. Bore out of a deep-seated conviction to win souls, in 2005 *Resha!* became a licensed minister. A veritable testament regarding her dedication is shown through her travel to the women's correctional facility in Vandalia , MO - approximately 1 hour from Quincy . In fact, while ministering at a meeting 'behind the wall', *Resha!* impressed prolific songwriter/manager/producer Mary Reives, project manager for her first-ever solo project, AllNu. "When I first heard Resha it was like something hit me! In fact, when she sings you can feel the power and the anointing. Described in one word, I would call her a 'powerhouse'! Undoubtedly, this is Resha's season!" say Mary Reives, who *Resha!* calls Destiny.
