Valecia Pickett makes her debut as a cast member of The Amen Corner, but she is no stranger to music. She has loved music her entire life and has sung with gospel choirs and ensembles for 50 years. She is a classically trained violinist and served as Concert Mistress (1st Chair, 1st Violin) for many years. Her one regret is that she did not continue playing her violin, and she is quick to say that playing the violin is NOT like riding a bicycle! She has played for countless musicals (West Side Story, Princess and the Pea, Nutcracker, Oklahoma!, among others) and is super excited about being a member of the cast of The Amen Corner!
