We go to church with Grammy, Emmy, and Dove Award-winning producer, Shannon Sanders. He explores his journey into music through the cultural eruption of Hip Hop to how he revolutionized radio as the founder of 102.1 FM The Ville. He talks about building on failures, listening with an open mind, and living a lifestyle of creativity.

Shannon Sanders is nationally best-known for his Grammys (2), Emmys (2) and Dove (1) award. Not only is he the founder and program director of Nashville Scene’s “2018 Best Soul Radio Station” pick, 102.1 FM The Ville and a National Trustee of the Recording Academy, Shannon is also a city commissioner for the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corporation, a board member of the Nashville Ballet, a member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, Inc. and, he was one of the music industry leaders selected for Leadership Music’s Class of 2017.

If you were to ask people to describe Shannon, words like “super-producer” (he’s worked with India.Arie, Jonny Lang, John Legend, Robert Randolph, just to name a few), “gifted musician” (he’s served as co-musical director for India.Arie and Fisk Jubilee Singers Annual Spring Sing at the Ryman for several years), “amazing vocalist” (he was a mainstage artist at Nashville's 2018 July 4th Celebration), visionary and mentor are what you would probably hear most.
