Moriah Missionary Baptist Church (Saginaw, MI) where her mother was the musician, and her father was a deacon.  At twelve years of age, while resting under a piano in a recording studio, Adriann knew that her career would be in singing after hearing her voice playing from speakers on her first recording, “He’s the Greatest Friend of All,” with Saginaw Valley Choir under the direction of the late Rev.
