Ruger Quarm sings Easter significance with Calvary

IT’S the Easter season and many Christians across the world will commemorate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ starting tomorrow, Good Friday.

And to mark the season which is regarded as one of the most important festivals on the Christian calendar, gospel singer, William Quarm Bennin, better known by his stage name Ruger Quarm is out with a new song, Calvary.

The song featuring David Osabutey was officially released on all digital platforms on Friday, March 17.

Produced by KODA, the song expresses eternal gratitude to Jesus for the matchless love he displayed for mankind by dying on the cross at Calvary.

According to Ruger Quarm, Christians will celebrate Easter with little regard and understanding for its significance.

As such, the new song is to give listeners a deep revelation of the death and resurrection of Christ and its symbolism.

“Personally, I believe that Easter is a very important event but unfortunately, many celebrants do not attach much importance apart from merrymaking. However, it is aseason of reflection to make better decisions for a divine sacrifice,” he said.

The 2022 Gospel Artiste of the Year nominee at Western Gospel Awards is a recording artiste, worship leader and a composer.

Born into a family of musicians, Ruger Quarm who is a professional Procurement Officer said he nurtured his talent by observing and listening to his family members as a kid.

The graduate of Takoradi Technical Uuniversity has collaborated with Kofi Owusu Peprah, David Osabutey and shared the stage with the likes of Joe Mettle, KODA, Francis Amo, MOG Music, Efe Grace, SK Frimpong, Nii Okai, Ohemaa Mercy.

Songs such as The Name of Jesus and Wo Ne Alpha have earned him some recognition in the Gospel music space.

“My passion is to actively conscientise the youth about the right lifestyle and traits that have positive influence on society thorough my songs,” he said.
