Rita Marie Valle is a dynamic Christian artist who is quickly gaining a worldwide following for her strong, yet melodic voice and powerful Spirit-filled songs. Her 2004 debut CD, From the Depth of My Soul, is now being played throughout the United States and at least a dozen countries worldwide. As a woman of faith, psalmist and worshipper Rita believes that music is a vehicle that propels change, healing and wholeness and compels others to embrace truth, insight and understanding. Her music has been described as an epic of love that surely touches the heart of God and captures the listener.
Rita made her professional singing debut at the age of 19 at the New Haven Coliseum in Connecticut opening for Puerto Rican romantic balladeer Danny Rivera. She also appeared in leading theatrical roles in productions such as Anything Goes, The It Girl and West Side Story throughout Connecticut. In 1988 Rita found herself desiring an intimate relationship with the Lord, thereby making the decision to renew her covenant with the One who would set her course. By 1991, she became a founding member at Kingdom Life Christian Church where she still continues to sing praises to the Lord as a Worship Leader and member of the Praise Team.
Rita has performed on a variety of local and national television programs, including Trinity Broadcasting Network's (TBN) national show, "Praise The Lord". She has shared the stage with renowned artists and acts, including: Bebe Winans, Bill and Rene Morris, Phil Driscoll, Ron Kenoly, Carman, Justo Almario, Abraham Laboriel, Ingrid Rosario, Pedro Eustache, Christina de los Angeles, Adlan Cruz and Vickie Winans. She recorded with PPI Entertainment Group and was featured on Papa San's 2005 Real and Personal album with Gospocentric Records.
The CD, From the Depth of My Soul, chronicles Rita's journey with the Lord. Through her anointed songs and lyrics, God has truly given to her the vehicle to reach others in a most special way. Rita sings and performs knowing always that wherever she stands, she does not stand alone, for her creator holds her hand as He walks every step of her course with her.
Rita's ministry focus is in being a vessel that is used to bring restoration to the body of Christ and the world that surrounds us. She has been known to cross the gap between different Christian denominations, because the common ground is a devotion, a love and worship for Jesus.
