Country singer Karissa Ella always wanted to write a song in honor of her hometown of Canton, Ohio. She grew up a stone’s throw away from the Pro Football Hall of Fame, a tourist hotspot attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. Ella understands the cultural significance of an institution honoring America’s favorite sport. But when she penned her latest single, she wanted to honor the heroes from her hometown who often don’t make headlines but are vital to the community.

During an exclusive interview with The Epoch Times, the Nashville recording artist shared that the inspiration behind “Hall of Fame” comes from those very people residing in her hometown.
