Popular multi-award winning recording artist, Ivan Parker adds more honors to his long list of accolades and awards. The Gaither Music CD/DVD release, The Best Of Ivan Parker, audio recording peaked at the Number One slot on Billboard Magazine’s Southern Gospel Chart, and also sat at the Number Nine position on the CCM Chart. Additionally, the DVD peaked at the Number Two position on the Billboard Music Video Chart, above numerous popular secular recording artists. On September 24, Gaither Management presented Parker with a plaque in recognition of this success. "I am so incredibly excited to receive such a high rating from the prestigious Billboard Magazine,” Parker stated at the presentation. “What an honor to see Southern Gospel rise to the top of the charts with all the other types of music."
The announcement came on the heels of Parker’s receipt of the Fan Award for Favorite Soloist, awarded by subscribers of The Singing News Magazine, one of Southern Gospel Music’s leading fan and trade publication. Parker also recently received the 2008 Soloist Of The Year Diamond Award from the SGN Scoops Magazine. Both awards were presented to the popular male vocalist during the 2008 National Quartet Convention, which took place earlier this month in Louisville, KY.
