Debby is the third daughter of four to famous singer-actor Pat Boone, and his wife Shirley Boone (nee Foley), daughter of country music star Red Foley. The moment she matured enough, Debby started touring with her parents and alongside her three sisters, Cherry, Lindy, and Laury sang and recorded with parents under the name The Pat Boone Family. However, the girls started out on their own, and recorded four studio albums under name The Boone Girls and The Boones.
Debby then ventured into music industry solo, after several recordings with the family, and scored a hit single immediately – “You Light Up My Life” – and released an album with the same title, achieving platinum status in US, reaching No. 6 on the US Country and US Billboard 200 charts, while it topped the charts in Canada. By the end of the ‘70s she had released two more albums – “Midstream” (1978) and “Debby Boone” (1979), but to mixed reviews. Nevertheless, she re-emerged onto the music top tier with the hit single “Are You on the Road to Lovin’ Me Again”, found on her 1980 album “Love Has No Reason”.
The same year she started making Christian music, and released her first Christian album “With My Song”. Throughout the ‘80s she focused on Christian music and released albums such as “Surrender” (1983), which reached No. 7 on the US Christian chart, “Choose Life” (1985), which also settled in 7th spot, then “Friends for Life” (1987), which reached No. 4 and eventually “Be Thou My Vision” (1989), which wasn’t as popular as her previous releases, stopping at No. 23. After that, Debby retired from the entertainment industry to focus more on her children, but after they had grown, she returned with the album “Reflections of Rosemary”, released in 2005.
