Wendy Moten (born November 22, 1965, Memphis, Tennessee) is an American singer, best known for the single "Come In Out of the Rain", which was a #8 hit in the UK in February 1994.
Early life and career
Born in Memphis, Moten sang in church choirs as a child. She got her first break singing with Michael Bolton at a benefit concert; after signing with EMI, in 1992 she released her self-titled debut album and opened for Bolton on tour.[1] Moten's biggest hit single was "Come In Out of the Rain", which, although a minor hit in 1993 on the Billboard Hot 100, was a #5 adult contemporary hit, and also reached the Top 10 in the UK Singles Chart, where it peaked at #8 in 1994. A follow up single, "So Close to Love", reached #35 in the UK Top 40.
In 2006, Moten sang back-up vocals on the Soul2Soul II Tour with Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. She contributed backing vocals to Bonnie Tyler's 2013 album Rocks and Honey.
