Brooklyn, NY – August 25, 2023 –Mark Hubbard & The Voices have released an exhilarating new single, as the celebrated ensemble pays tribute to the great Reverend Timothy Wright with a cover of the uplifting “For the Rest of My Life.”
The single is available now on all digital platforms.
Led by Reginald Staggers, Mark Hubbard & The Voices deliver a performance that the late Reverend Timothy Wright would surely be proud of. “This song is a favorite of mine, and when we began recording our new project, I wanted a classic song because we can’t ever forget the greats who have gone before us,” says Hubbard.
“For The Rest of My Life” is a song that will get anyone through any day of the week, and is equally perfect for Sunday morning worship.
