Early Life and Calling
Vincent Bohanan was born June 2, 1990. He grew up rooted in New York’s gospel choir tradition, a background that would eventually shape both his music ministry and his path into pastoral leadership. Bohanan has described his journey from choir director to pastor as something that developed gradually, through years of ministering through music before stepping fully into the pulpit.
Ministry and Career
Founding Sound of Victory (2014)
In January 2014, Bohanan founded the Sound of Victory Fellowship Choir in Brooklyn, New York. What started as a local church choir grew steadily into one of the more visible gospel choirs of the decade. SOV recorded live at The Cathedral for the Holy Spirit in January 2016, releasing the project as Road To 5: We Win EP in February 2019.
Billboard success with “We Win”
In 2017, SOV released the single “We Win: The Kingdom Declaration,” which premiered at number one on Billboard’s gospel Singles Chart. The success led to two Stellar Award nominations in 2018 and a deal with Hez House Music, the label imprint under Hezekiah Walker, distributed through RCA Records.
Sharing stages with major artists
Bohanan and SOV have built a performance résumé well beyond typical church-choir circles. The choir has recorded with Grammy Award-winning gospel artist CeCe Winans, backed P. Diddy during the 2015 NBA All-Star Weekend and Bad Boy Reunion Tour, and supported Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas” tour. SOV has also served as a featured choir for Bishop Hezekiah Walker’s annual Resurrection Sunday Concert and appeared on The World Network’s Dorinda Clark Show.
He Reigns and later releases
Bohanan’s catalog includes the single “He Reigns,” along with “Any Day Now,” released during the height of the pandemic as a message of hope and patience. In his words, the song was meant to remind listeners that “God will and can show up,” even in uncertain seasons.
“Vincent Bohanan is a living testimony, if you wait on the Lord He will show up,” is how one interviewer summed up his outlook heading into the choir’s seventh anniversary.
SOV has continued touring across the United States and Europe, with two consecutive European tours to its name. More recent live projects include Live in Chicago, Live in Dallas, and A Choir Christmas.
Pastoral ministry
Beyond music, Bohanan serves as pastor of The Winners Assembly in New York. He also founded The Victorious Army, a ministry and musical extension based in Atlanta, expanding his reach beyond the choir format that first built his name.[IMAGE: Vincent Bohanan preaching at The Winners Assembly]
