A native of the Pittsburgh area, Dana Fields is a chosen vessel of God
and exemplifies the life of Christ through her devotion to God, family and ministry.
Born in Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania, she is the younger of two daughters
born to Rev. Dr. William and Rev. Dr. Barbara Terry.

Actively singing since age 3, Dana grew up as part of the family quartet
which traveled to various churches and events throughout Western Pennsylvania.
The rich family legacy of music and ministry
have been past down to her for more than four generations.

She has been gifted by God to love the arts from singing, writing, and the visual arts.
She is a singer/songwriter/lyricist at heart and chooses to use her gifts and talents to glorify God.
Dana’s music ministry is power-packed with vibrant vocals and relevant lyrics
that will elevate the listener to a higher realm of personal praise!
Her style is a blend of Praise and Worship, Jazz,
and R&B with a solid foundation of Gospel.

To enlarge her territories, God opened the door when she was cast for the
role of Velma in the 2006 production of Regina Taylor’s Crowns
at the Open Stage of Harrisburg.
With the production being widely and well received,
Crowns returned to the Open Stage for its
2nd season in May of 2007 where
