Charlyce Simmons is a native of the Orlando FL. Metropolitan area. As a child she attended the EL Bethel Christian Academy, and West Orange High School where she graduated in 1998. As you know, Charlyce has been blessed with a wonderful gift of music through singing. Her music career began at an early age of three.

Under the tutelage of her Mom, Ms. Sue Love, and Debbie Wesley (her elementary/middle/high school music teacher) she learned all areas and genres of music and piano. Her years of music started with Vision and continued on throughout Middle School with Destiny, and she also shared the stage with performers like Patti Labelle, Kim Burrell, Terri McConnell, Luther Barnes, Daryl Coley Larue Howard and Madelyn Berry; just to name a few.
