Based in sunny St. Petersburg, Florida, Bruce crafts heartfelt songs that take an honest look at issues of faith and relationships. He blends catchy melodies and lyrical flourishes with contemporary sounds to create music that is both musically uplifting and soul-searching.

At an early age, Bruce found success as a concert oboist. He has played principal oboe for numerous ensembles including Pinellas Youth Symphony, Tampa Bay Youth Orchestra, Tampa Bay Symphony, Eight O’Clock Theater Ensemble, and The National Festival Orchestra under the direction of Lukas Foss in Carnegie Hall. 

Bruce received notoriety in the music community when members of The Florida Orchestra and Tampa Bay Symphony performed his original, award-winning compositions.
