Rod Stokes Biography – Rod Stokes Wiki
Rod Stokes is a contestant on season 16 of “The Voice” on NBC.
Growing up, was surrounded by athletics and was always involved in sports. He played football and golf at Vancleave High School, and for a short time even joined the football team at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College’s Perkinston campus under Steve Campbell. His football career lasted only about five weeks. His father fell ill and couldn’t keep up the family construction business for months, so Stokes moved home to help out.
He sang his first solo — like, by myself, full song — when he was 20 years old at his home church. It was “Please Come Down to Me” by The Crabb Family, a gospel group.
His breakout moment came at a talent evaluation event called Music Explosion at Wilmer First Baptist, off of U.S. 98 between Mobile and Lucedale.
He was chosen and opened for the Kingdom Heirs quartet. Then-music pastor Barry Jemison, now lead pastor at Journey Church in Lucedale, asked him to get a band together in five or six weeks. He was able to get family and friends to form the band, Rod and Staff.
Rod Stokes The Voice
Rod Stokes is a contestant on season 16 of “The Voice” on NBC.
Rod Stokes’s bio on “The Voice” website reads: “Rod grew up watching his sister sing in church, but he was too shy to participate. Being a larger kid, he ended up spending most of his time playing football. He continued to play in college, but his football dreams were cut short when he had to drop out to take over the family construction business. Without football in his life, Rod felt inspired to start singing, and his family started their own traveling musical ministry. Rod met his wife on the road, and since being married, he has lost over 100 pounds. Rod is ready to give his music career a real shot on “The Voice” stage.”
