BIOGRAPHY

CHRIS VERDELL
BIO

Chris Verdell is a native of Columbus, Mississippi, and the second eldest of six children born to Pastor Tommie and Mattie Verdell. Chris began singing at the tender age of six. He grew up watching his father sing, and this played a huge role in his desire to sing. Chris initially began singing with his siblings. His father later assumed the role of Pastor of St John Full Gospel Church, where Chris sang in the choir. Chris sang in his father’s church choir throughout his teen years, up until his graduation from high school.

After Graduating from high school, Chris joined the U.S. Navy, where he has served for over 12 years. Joining the Navy as an enlisted man, Chris quickly climbed the enlisted ranks and was subsequently commissioned as an officer. He currently serves as the Administrative and Legal Officer at Strike Fighter Squadron TWO SEVEN, an aviation squadron in Atsugi, Japan. Chris’ squadron deploys with the USS KITTY HAWK (CV-63), America’s only Forward Deployed aircraft carrier.

When not deployed in support of his country, you can find Chris singing. He recently released his debut CD, “Direction”, recorded and produced in Tokyo, Japan. Direction has been described as heart-felt and inspirational. “It’s a perfect blend of traditional and contemporary gospel,” says Chris.
