Effervescent gospel vocalist and ordained evangelist, Evangelist Beverly Crawford, was born in the early sixties in Gainesville, Florida. One of seven children in a household headed by her pastor father, Walter Camp. The young Beverly became exposed to gospel music from the earliest time she could remember. Like many other gospel divas, she began singing at a very age, making her debut at the tender age of three, at her father's church. Raised in Gainesville, the young Beverly joined her four sisters by singing at their father's church. By this time music was already in her blood and the young Beverly was already rehearsing future performances: years later she recalled with mild amusement how she would often sing as a young child in front of her father's house, with a stick as a microphone; and the grass as her audience!!
The young Beverly began performing her four sisters in the family gospel group which became know as the Camp Sisters, and quickly gained popularity through Gainesville and surrounding areas of Florida.
After surviving cancer, in 1989 Beverly and her husband Todd Crawford founded the Potter's House Ministries, a development inspired by Beverly's renewed and unshakable faith in God and her passion to serve Him through ministering and music. Also that same year, Todd recorded a video of the Camp Sisters performing and sent copies to various gospel promoters and media organizations. Gospel legend Dr. Bobby Jones was suitable impressed by the recording. Jones, who hosts the Bobby Jones Gospel, a television programme hosted on the Black Entertainment Channel, invited Beverly and the other Camp Sisters group to his Sunday morning show. After several successful appearances, Beverly was invited by Bobby Jones to join his group, New Life.
Beverly performed with Bobby Jones and New Life for six successful years. She featured on recordings
Bring It to Jesus and the Music City Mass Choir's We Need to Hear It From You, before launching out on a solo career.
Beverly's solo career began with the release of her first debut album Jesus, Precious King in 1995 under the Warner Bros label. This was followed three years later in 1998 by her second album release, Now That I'm Here. Precious King brought Crawford a Stellar Award nomination and Now That I'm Here brought her recognition with a Grammy Award nomination in 1999.
Crawford released a studio album Beverly, in 2001 on T.D Jake's Dexterity Records platform; a vibrant production featuring eleven tracks brilliantly blended from elements of traditional gospel, pop, jazz and funk. Crawford continues to manage a hectic touring schedule which includes an incredible 200 concerts each year, inspired by her passion and devotion to the ministry.
Beverly and her husband Todd have two children. Their daughter Latrina also featured in her mother's 2003 album Live Family and Friends, which also featured Shirley Murdock, Bobby Jones and Melvin Williams.
Beverly Crawford is a living embodiment of the endless possibilities that can be attained, based on an unshakable faith in God and total devotion to serve Him through ministering and through song.
