Kristle Murden

like crystal...clear, distinctive, and exquisite. No one sounds like Kristle Murden! This stellar vocalist soars and spirals through her three-octave range touching the soul with every melodic nuance.

Kristle is that magical voice singing the Oscar award winning song Can You Feel the Love Tonight in Disney’s greatest animated film The Lion King. Her voice can also be heard on the sound track for The Lady Killers, as well as on two made for television movies: Voyage of the Unicorn; and In Search of Dr. Seuss.

Raised in Washington, DC, Kristle started singing at the age of five and began playing piano at ten. She began her professional recording career when she sang a duet with the legendary gospel great Andraé Crouch titled I’ll Be Thinking of You from the Grammy Award winning album of the same name. Her first album titled I Can’t Let Go, featuring six of her original songs, was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Soul Gospel Performance, Contemporary. Three years later, she was nominated for a Grammy for Best Soul Gospel Performance, Female for the song Jesus Come Lay your Head on Me from the Andraé Crouch album No Time To Lose.

Throughout her career, Kristle has worked on album projects of superstars such as Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguillera, Brandy and Barbra Streisand to name a few. She has been a staple in the Andraé Crouch camp and was a featured soloist on four of his critically acclaimed albums.

This is not your every day gospel singer. Kristle’s style is an amazing blend of jazz, r&b, pop, rock, and classical music. With Kristle, you get a soulful message with a universal sound.

As important as singing is to Kristle, songwriting has been another ongoing passion. Writing meaningful lyrics and beautiful melodies is something close to her heart. She has built an extensive catalogue of original songs.

“I love singing for movie scores, television sitcoms and creating vocal arrangements for projects, as well as being a supporting vocalist for other artists, however, I believe that I have something to say…something to give the world, that I can only give as a solo artist”……
