Shannon Sanders And The Nashville Urban Choir Release FIGHT ON
“Fight On” from SHANNON SANDERS and the Nashville Urban Choir is a resolution anthem. The song is being purposefully released on Feb 8th, 2019, in honor of and in celebration for Black History Month, which lands at that moment in the new year when commitment to new intentions begins to wane and the reality of the work required to push past old habits sinks in. “Fight On,” written and performed by SANDERS (vocalist, songwriter, producer, musical director, philanthropist, and program director of Nashville's 102.1 The Ville), features a rousing neo-gospel performance from the Nashville Urban Choir. Today, Billboard is premiering the video for “Fight On,” calling the song “powerful” and noting its ability to “uplift and inspire.”
