Anita Paul

Anita Paul, formerly of Edmonton, Alberta, was pursuing her dream of becoming a recording artist from her new home base in Kelowna, British Columbia. She released her debut CD Bridge of Love to critical acclaim from both media and industry professionals. The CD is filled with songs that span a wide range of issues in life, and has been described as a tasteful blend of both Adult Contemporary and Contemporary Christian music styles (Peter North, Edmonton Journal). Anita was nominated for a Vibe Award in 2003 as Female Vocalist of the Year for her inspired work on Bridge of Love. The CD was also nominated for two Covenant Awards – Pop/Contemporary Song of the Year for These Three Things, and Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year.

Anita was actively involved in Christian music ministry for many years, and sang on the music team at her home church. She contributed her talents to the cause of several local charities, and was a member of the World Vision Artist Associate program. Anita and her husband Randall conducted vocal technique and technical AV workshops for churches as part of their ministry. Anita also taught singing lessons and stage performance technique from her home in Kelowna.

Anita Paul was a Christian Adult Contemporary artist who delivered her message of hope with passion, poise, and purpose! She consistently moved audiences with her powerful voice, and could connect a song to a listener in a way that prompts a deep response. Her heart’s desire was to live a life that goes beyond success to significance - walking by faith, living with hope, and making an impact in the world with the message of God’s life-changing love!

Anita Paul passed away in September 2012.
