Atlanta-born singer LaShun Pace first came to the attention of the Gospel world in the 70s as part of the Anointed Pace Sisters, a touring sibling act that gained regional and then national attention by winning a number of major Gospel competitions and culminating with their signing by Savoy Records. Pace launched her own solo career in 1991 with He Lives, a solid album that highlighted her strong, beautiful voice, and which became one of that year’s top Gospel albums. However, during the late 90s and early 00s Pace suffered a number of personal setbacks, including the death of her oldest daughter, a divorce and a series of physical aliments that severely hindered her career. After a half-decade absence resulting from ill health and personal tragedy, LaShun Pace has happily comeback and released the album It’s My Time.
