International Artist Calvin Bridges Releases Single 'No Weapon' Recorded Live In Chicago
Composer and international artist Calvin Bridges is one of Gospel music’s living legends. He is a Stellar Award-winning, and Grammy nominated artist who has penned numerous hit songs and has traveled the globe, presenting his dynamic music ministry and teaching classic and iconic sacred songs.
Once again, Calvin has gathered the children to sing the Gospel Glory, proclaiming the Good News about Jesus with the profound message and new single “No Weapon.”
"No Weapon" is a celebration of hope and joy, permeating indisputable decrees and powerful images of deliverance and victory! The single proclaims, "No weapon formed against us shall prosper. Every tongue that rises against us in judgment shall be condemned." (Isaiah 54:17)
Calvin recorded the single live in Chicago at the historic Malcolm X College Auditorium with an aggregation of USA and European singers who joined to form the International Gospel Music Conference Mass Choir with special guests from Stockholm, Sweden. The recording captured the atmosphere of elation and the skillful artistry of the participating gifted musicians and singers, all crafted, written, and produced by Calvin Bridges.
“No Weapon” is swingin' with contemporary jazz nuances and pumping with old-school power and swag while riding on a funky music track. With a masterful lead and soulful choir vocals, the song becomes a praise party.
Bridges says, "In a day where automatic assault weapons are used to kill and destroy in record numbers, taking way too many innocent lives, violent crime is rampant in our cities, government, boardrooms, schools, and houses of worship. Words are also weaponized to shame, degrade, and assassinate the moral character and dreams of generations past, present, and future. No weapon can prosper is a Kingdom statement and battle cry that is especially needed now.”
