Brooke Stone
Brooke Stone founded and sings with the trio Mercy River.
Stone’s love of music originated with her father and his guitar. From him she learned songs from John Denver, the Beach Boys, and others. When she wasn’t participating in community plays, she was making up her own.
During her teen years, she focused on succeeding in sports, but soon went back to her love of music and joined her school’s choir.
Stone met Whitney Permann and Soni Muller while singing with the Jenny Phillips Choir. Phillips handpicked them when she wanted to write music for a trio. They formed Mercy River in 2009, and have toured all over the United States and Canada singing about the Savior, Jesus Christ.
Mercy River released its first album in May 2008, entitled “Mercy River.” A second album named “Beautiful Dawn” followed in 2010 with “Higher” premiering in 2012. “Come Alive” was released in 2014.
Stone and her husband, Jarum, life in Davis County in Utah. They are the parents of three children.
