As a songwriter Washington wrote the Holiday song "Snow Cover Stars." As a producer, Washington is known for her creativity and attention to detail.

She competed for and was awarded the 2018 Montgomery County Employee's Black History Show contract. Her debut CD Love Changes set her on a patch of winning hearts immediately with her engaging style.

For Coniece Washington her affinity for Shirley Horn holds a special place in her heart. Shades of Shirley Horn is a heartfelt connection to the chanteuse. Washington explains, "the first time I heard Shirley Horn sing, I feel in love with her groove and elegance. Due to my military service I never had the opportunity to attend one of her shows, but I always carry her sound in my heart." Much more than a tribute album, Shades of Shirley Horn is a musical statement to one of the most lasting influences on Washington. The collection of twelve well chosen tunes is a loving homage to Washington's most beloved Great American Songbook selections.
