Stellar Award winning recording artist Lonnie Hunter and his dynamic choir Structure is welcoming the fall with a celebratory song of praise “He’s Worthy.” The percussive, soul-stirring track is a fun fusion of old school Chicago choir swag and a festive contemporary flavor. The song was serviced to gospel programmers last week and it’s the second most added song at gospel radio this week. The tune popped up at #61 on this week’s Nielsen BDS Encore Gospel Format Playlist Report.
