In addition to being a member of the award winning Tri-City Singers, Woods has backed some of Gospel’s finest like John P. Kee, Kurt Carr, and Karen Clark-Sheard. In October 2006, Woods moved from behind the scenes to center stage with his debut project Introducing DeWayne Woods & When Singers Meet - the first release from Donald Lawrence’s Quiet Water Entertainment under the Zomba Gospel umbrella.
