A group of people formerly imprisoned for their role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack at the U.S. Capitol are releasing a new album on the fifth anniversary of the riot.
The members of the J6 Prison Choir were pardoned upon President Trump’s return to office in January, and are now coming out with an album on a label backed by cable news channel Real America’s Voice, according to The Telegraph.
“Now is the time to grow the music and entertainment space for patriots. We’re building a community where faith-driven Americans can connect over music, entertainment, sports, news, and more. Our focus isn’t just on content; it’s on creating a space where patriots can come together and we’re actively seeking additional content to serve this audience,” said Real America’s Voice executive Robert Sigg, according to The Telegraph.
The J6 Prison Choir previously hit the top of the iTunes charts in 2023 with “Justice For All,” a song produced by now-FBI Director Kash Patel, including the national anthem sung into prison phones and Mr. Trump speaking the Pledge of Allegiance, according to The Associated Press.
The new album will include a re-recording of “Justice For All” and a new single “The Anthem of the Free,” coming out on Dec. 19, according to The Telegraph.
“This one is going to be a little more orchestral and uplifting, rather than sort of a tear-jerker, which the original was for people who found that cause to be near and dear to their heart,” producer LJ Fino, referring to the new rendition of “Justice For All,” told The Telegraph.
Mr. Fino is the founder of First Class Label Group, which previously released music by Lara Trump, wife of the president’s son Eric Trump.
The label’s X account reposted a clip from “The Anthem of the Free” uploaded by Real America’s Voice on Wednesday. Mr. Fino said the song “speaks to a lot of conservatives on many different levels.”
