Editor's note

LaShell Griffin's gospel voice and Christmas standards

A Chicago singer whose church roots shaped a catalog of modern gospel and holiday favorites.

For a quick sense of her sound, try "Away In A Manger" or the title track from "Free." Both show how she handles melody with that church-trained voice.

Her 2002 debut album "Free" gave gospel music a modern staple with its title track, but it's her Christmas recordings that have built a lasting connection. Songs like "Away In A Manger" and "The First Noel" show how she brings a gospel singer's warmth to familiar holiday material. That approach earned her a Stellar Award and a Dove Award recognition.

She grew up singing in Chicago churches and community choirs, with gospel and R&B shaping her vocal style. Producer Kurt Carr noticed her in the early 1990s, leading to her solo debut "Free" in 2002. Later albums like "God Provides" and "Life After" followed, alongside those Christmas recordings that became a significant part of her catalog.
