Mona Verdour

Mona Verdour is a genre-bending force of nature—part storyteller, part show-stopper—who brings a raw, magnetic presence to every stage she steps on. From intimate market sets with her original music to leading her 50-person Mona Verdour Rock Choir, to creating chant anthems at women’s retreats, she’s carved a path as a dynamic, self-made artist with something real to say. Mona lights up the room with authenticity, soul, and a fierce love for connection through music.
