Childs, Mandile Launch Veritable Music
Nashville musicians Andy Childs and Steve Mandile have launched music publishing and production company Veritable Music, LLC. Funded by Memphis businesswoman Leigh Shockey, the company is housed in the Parlor Recording Studio building, located at 1317 16th Ave. S. Music publisher and songplugger Stephanie Greene represents Veritable’s catalog of songs through her own independent firm, while Mark Ahlberg handles administration.
Veritable’s roster of songwriters includes Willie Mack, Danielle Lauderdale, and Seth Cook. Mack’s songs have been recorded by Sara Evans, Collin Raye, the Oak Ridge Boys, and others. Lauderdale was featured on CMT’s Next Superstar series.
Childs and Mandile co-formed the band Sixwire. Together and separately, they have had songs recorded by Tim McGraw, John Michael Montgomery, Chris Cagle, Ronnie Dunn, Craig Morgan, Mark Wills, Cliff Richard, George Canyon, and Carolyn Dawn Johnson.
Childs and Mandile each rank as managing partner at Veritable, with Childs overseeing all operations as CEO, and Mandile supervising all creative activities. Shockey serves as CEO of Drexel Chemical Co. in Memphis, and is the current chairperson of the Memphis Chamber of Commerce.
