Biography

Donielle Houston

If you ask Donielle what the Lord has done for her, she will tell you about God’s infinite grace and provision, and admit that there’s so much more to come and that there is more for you too! That’s what she does. A dynamic singing talent, hailing from Philadelphia and formally trained at the renowned High School for the Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA), she seeks to use her talents and insights, both on and off stage, to glorify God and proclaim his glory. 

As an independent artist, Donielle has done a great deal of work under her previous name Donielle Rodwell, including features with other amazing artists like Da’ T.R.U.T.H. on “Freedom” and “Real Love,” Jahaziel’s “Better”, and many more. Donielle was among the first Gospel artists to perform at the TLA in Philly since 2010. In 2014, Donielle won the Gospel PHL Live Center Stage competition, a city-wide contest sponsored by councilman David Oh, which then allowed her to take the stage at Philadelphia’s famous Dell Music Center. She has also had the privilege of opening for Fred Hammond and The Walls Group.

While her accomplishments and collaborations are great and many, her ultimate goal is to minister and worship through her life and craft that people would come to know Jesus and know Him as a healer, deliverer, savior, and so much more as she has. Donielle will be releasing a series of singles over the next few months building up to a full project! It’s her prayer that this music helps bring listeners closer to her great, gracious, and loving savior: Jesus Christ.
