Two-Time GRAMMY Nominee Martha Wash Brings Her Legendary Voice to St. Louis' City Winery – July 17





Part of Her Acclaimed Love & Conflict Tour — A Powerful Blend of Soul, Dance, and Rock from a True Music Legend

ST. LOUIS, MO, June 29, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- On Wednesday, July 17, the unstoppable voice behind some of the most iconic anthems in music history, two-time GRAMMY nominee Martha Wash, brings her powerhouse vocals and dynamic stage presence to City Winery St. Louis for one unforgettable night.

Wash is best known for her unforgettable vocals on some of the biggest global hits of the '80s and '90s, defining the sound of a generation with era-shaping anthems like:

"Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" – Certified platinum with over 5.5 million copies sold worldwide, featuring Wash as the uncredited powerhouse voice behind C+C Music Factory's breakout smash.

"It's Raining Men" – A platinum-certified anthem that sold over 6 million copies globally, launched as part of the iconic duo The Weather Girls.

She also brought her signature vocal fire to Black Box's international hits, including "Everybody Everybody," "I Don't Know Anybody Else," and "Strike It Up"—tracks that fueled the golden age of dance music and topped charts across the U.S. and Europe. "Dreamland," the Black Box album featuring Wash's vocals, was certified Gold by the RIAA and spawned multiple Billboard Dance #1s, further cementing her legacy as one of the most influential voices in pop and club music history.

In addition to her lead work, Wash's unmistakable voice shines on other classic tracks from the era. She and longtime singing partner Izora Rhodes delivered soaring background solos and ad-libs on Rebbie Jackson's "Centipede," and her powerful vocals also feature on Seduction's hit single "(You're My One and Only) True Love."

Today, Wash continues to break boundaries with her latest album, Love & Conflict — a critically acclaimed fusion of soul, rock, blues, and gospel that reaffirms her place as one of the most vital voices in music. From the fiery funk-rock indictment "Never Enough Money," to the gritty, emotionally raw "Don't Forget My Name," and the vibrant, uptempo empowerment anthem "Glamour Flows," the album showcases Wash at her boldest, most versatile, and most vocally commanding.

"Martha applies her full gospel-rooted grit and a mounting fury…" – The New York Times

"A righteous vocal performance…" – Rolling Stone

With two GRAMMY nominations, 15 Billboard Dance #1 singles, and a voice that has moved millions, Martha Wash remains a living legend whose live performances are pure magic.
