WETUMPKA, AL – (1/20/25) Grammy award-winning artist Monica will take the Wind Creek Casino & Hotel Wetumpka Entertainment Center stage on Saturday, March 8th at 8pm. Tickets are available for purchase at ticketmaster.com and the Essentials Gift Shop, located inside Wind Creek Wetumpka.

Monica is a 30-million-plus selling singer, actress, philanthropist, and entrepreneur. Born and raised in Atlanta, GA, she began her career at 12 years old and was the youngest female ever to have two #1 back-to-back hits on Billboard's R&B chart. "The Boy Is Mine," the title track from her sophomore album, garnered Monica pop success with a record-breaking 13 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

She achieved six number one hits on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, becoming the first artist with chart-topping singles in three consecutive decades, putting her in the elite company of Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, James Brown, and Marvin Gaye who have had similar accolades.

In 2019 she launched her independent record label MonDeenise Music with the first single release "Commitment" hitting #1 on the Billboard R&B chart, and in August 2020 she released "Trenches (ft. Lil Baby)," the title track from her forthcoming new album, Trenches. She followed up with the release of "Friends (ft. Ty Dolla $ign)," scoring a Top 20 spot on the R&B Billboard chart. Monica followed with the official music video for "Friends." Directed by Sarah McColgan (H.E.R., Miguel, Charli XCX) and choreographed by Parris Goebel (Rihanna, SZA), the stunning clip racked up more than 2.2 MILLION views in the first week.

In 2023 Monica released her latest Trenches single "Letters" with the official music video featuring The Game—a sultry and intimate clip directed by Richard Selvi (Lil Nas X, Eminem, Polo G) from award winning creative and production studio, Swiss Made Entertainment. In addition, Summer 2023 welcomed the premiere of Monica's Apple Music show MoTalk Radio with basketball Hall of Famer & entrepreneur Shaquille O'Neal and country music star Mickey Guyton. Monica also performed on the Main Stage of the Essence Festival in New Orleans on July 1st while gracing the cover of Essence Magazine's July/August 2023 digital issue.

In January 2024, Rolling Stone featured Monica's hit "So Gone" at #56 in their "100 Greatest R&B Songs of the 21st Century," commending her "unapologetic realness." Monica's highly anticipated R&B album, Trenches, as well as her country album, Open Roads (Executive Produced by Brandi Carlile), also released in 2024—further solidifying her exceptional, successful, and longstanding career.
