Wynonna Ellen Judd born May 30, 1964 (in Ashland, Kentucky) is an American country music singer.
Her solo albums and singles are all credited to the singular name Wynonna (pronounced /waɪˈnoʊnə/).
Wynonna first rose to fame in the 1980s alongside her mother, Naomi, in the country music duo The Judds. The duo released seven albums on Curb Records, in addition to charting twenty-six singles, of which fourteen were Number One hits.
After The Judds disbanded in 1991, Wynonna began a solo career, also on Curb. In her solo career, she has released eight studio albums, a live album and a compilation album, in addition to charting more than twenty singles of her own. Her first three singles — "She Is His Only Need", "I Saw the Light" and "No One Else on Earth" — all reached Number One on the U.S. country singles charts, as did 1996's "To Be Loved by You". Three of her albums are certified platinum or higher by the RIAA. Her most recent recording, Sing: Chapter 1, was released on February 3, 2009. Wynonna is most recognized for her musical work, although starting in the 2000s, has also pursued other interests, including acting and philanthropy.
By 1976, Wynonna was living in Kentucky, where Wynonna took inspiration from the country music that her mother listened to, and learned to play guitar after receiving one for Christmas. She and her sister moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 1979 in pursuit of a musical career.
Her immediate family consists of her mother, Naomi Judd, half-sister Ashley Judd, and two children.
On April 2, 1992, Wynonna performed solo on television for the first time at the American Music Awards. She unveiled "She Is His Only Need", the first single from her self-titled solo debut album. This album, Wynonna, was released in 1992 via MCA/Curb, under the production of Tony Brown."She Is His Only Need" went to Number One on the Billboard country singles charts that year, as did the album's next two singles, "I Saw the Light" and "No One Else on Earth."
