I will not be booking any further performances for the the remainder of the 2008 year, so I can concentrate on a very,very busy work schedule at the Indy Racing Experience. Feel free to check us out at ww.indyracingexperience.com! I want to thank everyone for all their love and support over the years! I look forward to everything yet to come in my life, and look forward to seeing you all sometime in the future! I will also be married to an absolutely wonderful guy on September 13, 2008. This is not an end to my music, but yet the beginning of another chapter in my very blessed life! Thank you!!! -Shonda
Born in 1987 to Kimberly and Craig Moore of Indianapolis, LaShonda Sue Moore, better known as Shonda Sue, knew from an early age what she wanted to do with her life. Her career as an entertainer began at age 8 when she first sang at the Morgan County Fair. She wanted to sing and her parents didn't have to push her into it. In fact there were many times, according to her mother, she had to ask LaShonda to stop practicing and get her homework done.
LaShonda took a big leap forward when she recorded her first Nashville project, Girl Thang, in 2001. The album featured five originals she selected from more than 300 choices along with five cover songs. The following year, May 2002, the single "Live While I Can" from her Girl Thang album was released on a compilation CD by Comstock Records. The song was her first to hit the airwaves in Europe and Australia. The release led to requests for her entire "Girl Thang" album and other tracks began playing overseas.
The year 2002 proved exciting with the release of two more albums on her own independent label, SPirit Productions Studio, a joint venture with her grandfather Paul Youkey. Christmas with Shonda Sue and Shonda Sue LIVE! 2002 Favorites became albums four and five on her growing roster of recordings.
"I started singing country music when I was eight... and some gospel too," LaShonda said. "Over time I felt the desire to lean more to Christian music and last year made the decision to focus primarily on this genre, -singing at Church camps, revivals, festivals, wherever the opportunity comes."
LaShonda said her parents have been very influential, making sure she stayed grounded in her faith. Both of them are very involved in their church. Her father is the Youth Pastor of Speedway General Baptist Church where they have been members for 18 years, and both Craig and Kimberly are members of the choir. LaShonda is active in Sunday School, Bible study and youth group activities.
"I feel the mission of my music is to touch and change lives around the world through song. Performing is my passion, but I first see myself as a follower of Christ. I strive to bring others to Christ and music is a great catalyst for that". LaShonda explains. "During the rough spots in my life I have always been able to count on Jesus to help me. That is part of the message I want people to hear through my music."

Is there someone there? Is there someone there? Come talk to us tonight. We’re asking for the dead to speak, It’s only us . . .my wife and me. Come tell us how you died.
The oracle moved about the board A figure-eight reply. The oracle started slowing down, then stopped . . . above the Y.
Tell us more, tell us more, what brought you here to me? Tell us how you died tonight. Tell us when you died tonight. Tell us what brings you here tonight. Keep spelling it for me.
The figure eight continues and around the board it moves. It’s slowing down, it’s slowing down. Come, spirit, talk to me right now, Tell us tonight, because we want to know . . Then the oracle stopped on the letter O.
You’re coming in so very clear, Now tell us why you’re roaming here, on this dark and stormy night. Speak to me, speak to me, Travel through this board to me. Tell us why you sleep tonight beneath your resting tomb. Speak to me, speak to me, speak to me now. Then the oracle stopped on the U.
Y-O-U, Y-O-U, this isn’t making sense. You spelled out, YOU is this what you meant to do? Then the oracle stopped on YES.
