Wynonna Judd

Article

Wynonna Judd (born May 30, 1964 in Ashland, Kentucky) is an American country music singer. Born Christina Claire Ciminella, she was renamed Wynonna Ellen Judd Roach, a name adapted from the line "Don't forget Winona" in the pop song "Route 66". Her solo albums and singles are all credited to the singular name Wynonna ().

Wynonna made her musical debut in the 1980s, alongside her mother Naomi in the country duo The Judds. Between 1983 and 1991, The Judds charted twenty-three hit singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles (now Hot Country Songs) charts, including fourteen Number Ones. They also recorded eight studio albums and two Greatest Hits compilations.

After a bout of hepatitis forced Naomi to retire, Wynonna embarked on a solo career, and her self-titled solo debut album was released in 1991. It produced three straight Number One singles and was certified 5× Multi-Platinum in the United States for sales of five million copies. Since then, Wynonna has recorded eight more studio albums, all on Curb Records. These albums have produced more than twenty-five hits on the country charts, including four Number Ones and seven additional Top Ten hits.
