Rev. Bruce Parham
An early impetus for Bruce Parham’s career in gospel music came from his grandmother, who instructed her grandson in no uncertain terms to “Open up your mouth and sing!” Sing he did, before church congregations and annual gatherings at the Mt.
Sinai Holy Church of America convention.
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Pastor Arthur and Almeda Parham, Bruce began singing at age two. By age 20, “Philadelphia’s Son of Promise” was winning gospel music singing competitions.
While appearing at the Gospel Music Workshop of America (GMWA) in St.
Louis, Missouri, Parham caught the attention of music executives who signed him to a recording contract. In 1990, he appeared as a vocalist on the GMWA National Youth Mass Choir album (Sweet Rain Records) and the annual GMWA Mass Choir release (Savoy Records).
Parham’s debut solo album, recorded with his Praise Factor ensemble, was appropriately titled Sing Bruce.
