Our voice, strength, passion, and heart is all we've ever wanted in our music. In other words, we are Verbatym...

We’ll start with Jovan Johnson, the jubilant juggernaut frontman. Having multi-instrument abilities and songwriting abilities beyond his years. Charisma and talent don’t pour, flow, or leak from him...they are naturally a part of who he is, and never are they part of an act that need to be controlled or faked. He is who he is, a young man with drive, determination and a voice to ring through the ages.

Nik Johnson delivers a jaw-dropping performance all by himself. Never caught sitting still, he is a whirlwind behind his four heads of skin stretched over curved wood. Creating and playing beats isn't enough though, it is the conviction in which Nik puts behind his drums which thunders and shakes everyone's chest, from the inside, to the outside. This phenom is years maybe even decades ahead of his predecessors and continues to raise the bar.

Storming onto the music scene only a few years ago, Russell Steedle has been widely recognized as the hero of modern guitar.It's not just Russell's fans who have been moved by his unique onstage performances...players of all walks of musical life have been attracted to his work.Known for his superhuman technical facility and willingness to push the edge of music beyond what’s come before, it is with Verbatym, he has found home. “Creating music is much more than a career to me, it’s a way of life,” he says, and in Verbatym he has found others who feel the same.

Put the three of them together on stage, and you have Verbatym, a sexy, young, pop-infused group. These three powerhouses share chemistry that scientists could never find the formula for. Undeniable, unpenetrable, and unbreakable are what this trio stand for and are all about. Verbatym is poised to step up to the next level, to grab the attention of ALL people worldwide, to entrance them with their look and sound.
