Legendary GRAMMY-winning 'Soul Man' Sam Moore is preparing to release a new album titled An American Patriot in September, which features inspiring renditions of iconic American classics including "God Bless America," "God Bless the U.S.A.," and "Show For You," the 2017 Department of Defense Warrior Games anthem. This patriotic album was inspired by Moore's own performance of "America the Beautiful" on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, where his dear friend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. stood 53 years before him.
Most recently, Moore performed during the "'Make America Great Again!' Welcome Celebration" on January 19th to celebrate the newly elected President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump and sang a duet at A Capitol Fourth with The Blues Brothers.
