Wynonna Biography
As one half of the Judds, Wynonna Judd became one of the most
popular and respected female country stars of her time. On her own
since the early '90s, Judd demonstrated an eclecticism that
increasingly confounded hardcore country fans and radio programmers but
also helped her retain a core of admiring followers. Her solo records
might stick with Judds-style country-pop or delve into roots rock,
blues, gospel, adult contemporary pop, folk, or Southern R&B.
Judd was born Christina Ciminella in Ashland, KY, on May 30, 1964. Her
mother, Naomi (then known by her birth name, Diana), was still in high
school at the time, and her biological father abandoned the family
almost immediately; Naomi married another man, Michael Ciminella, to
create a traditional family unit. In 1968, they moved to Los Angeles,
but the marriage disintegrated in 1972. Wynonna spent parts of the next
few years living on welfare and returned to Kentucky with her mother in
1976. They lived in a mountain home with no phone or television, and
listening to country music on the radio was a major source of
entertainment. Wynonna learned to play guitar after receiving one as a
gift and was soon singing close harmony with her mother. By the time
she was a teenager, her vocal talents were apparent, and in 1979, the
family moved to Nashville to try their luck in the music business.
Naomi and Wynonna landed a contract with RCA in 1983, and over the
remainder of the '80s, they became the biggest-selling duo in country
music history (a title that would later be taken over by Brooks &
Dunn). Wynonna wasn't always as career-minded as her mother, who
effectively ran the group, and was growing ever more rebellious when,
in 1990, Naomi was diagnosed with hepatitis C; she retired from
performing after a farewell tour in 1991.
Wynonna was at first unsure whether she wanted to carry on without her
mother but quickly decided to embark on a solo career, signing with
MCA. Her first album on her own, Wynonna, was released in 1992 and was
an instant smash, selling over three million copies; it also topped the
country charts, reached the Top Five on the pop side, and earned many
positive reviews as well. Her first three solo singles -- She Is His
Only Need, I Saw the Light, and No One Else on Earth -- all went
to number one on the country charts, and My Strongest Weakness also
made the Top Five. Judd's 1993 follow-up, Tell Me Why, was another
platinum-selling, number one country/Top Five pop album; it gave her
five more Top Ten hits in the title track, Only Love, Girls with
Guitars, Rock Bottom, and Is It Over Yet. However, Judd's career
hit a snag when it was revealed that, like her mother before her, she
had become pregnant out of wedlock. The tabloids had a field day, and
more conservative country fans attacked her as being an immoral role
model.
Judd eventually married her son's father, Nashville businessman Arch
Kelly, in 1996, and that year she finally released her third album,
Revelations. It was a more introspective affair that gave her a number
one single in To Be Loved by You and eventually went platinum despite
not producing any further Top Ten hits. For the follow-up, 1997's The
Other Side, Judd refashioned her sound into a bluesy, rock-driven roots
music blend that often recalled Bonnie Raitt. It reached the country
Top Five yet failed to sell a million copies for the first time in
Judd's solo career, prompting her to split with MCA and move to
Mercury. By this point, Judd had also had a second child, but her
marriage fell apart in 1998; instead of releasing another solo album
right away, Judd reunited with her mother for a New Year's Eve concert
to ring in the year 2000. They embarked on a full-fledged tour together
in 2000, and four new Judds songs were released on an exclusive bonus
disc with Wynonna's Mercury debut, New Day Dawning. Her most eclectic
effort to date (and her first as a co-producer), the album featured
covers of Joni Mitchell and the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and while it
didn't spawn any major hit singles, it again climbed into the Top Five
on the country album charts.
Judd returned to her country roots in 2003 with What the World Needs
Now Is Love, which found her reuniting on one track ( Flies on the
Butter ) with her mother. The live Her Story: Scenes from a Lifetime,
released on DVD and CD, arrived in 2005, hitting number two on the Top
Country Album charts, and the next year, just in time for the holiday
season, the singer released Classic Christmas. ~ Steve Huey, All Music
