Soul Patriots is a collective of renowned Nashville musicians who have created the rocking anthem “Make America Kind Again” in support of the Harris/Walz campaign. This recording, which features world-acclaimed vocalist Wendy Moten, has inspired “The MAKA Movement of Music City.” ​
"Make America Kind Again" is a rallying cry for unity and compassion in our current polarized political culture. It encourages us to “rise above all that divides us" and to "lean on love to reunite us.” The opening line says it all—“I love my country and I want it to be, a shining light for all the world to see.”​
Producer Paul Worley states, "The stakes in this election could not be more important to us and our families. We want to offer Kamala our greatest treasure —our hearts, our hands, our voices ... our humanity."​
“Make America Kind Again” was written by Hall of Fame songwriter Gary Nicholson and legendary singer-songwriter Marshall Chapman. The track features Dana Robbins (Aretha Franklin) on saxophone, Colin Linden (Bob Dylan) on electric guitar, James Pennebaker (Delbert McClinton) on electric guitar, Mike Joyce (Roy Orbison) on bass, Kevin McKendree (Brian Setzer) on keyboards, engineering and mixing, and Paul Worley (producer of Dixie Chicks among many others) on acoustic guitar. The single is released on all streaming platforms.​
“I’ve never let politics stop me from loving anybody. That said, I feel honored to be part of this project. Get out there and vote, people. Love on …”
— Marshall Chapman
