The Grammy® Award-nominated vocal trio, The Rance Allen Group, has launched a “Good Neighbor” public service challenge to coincide with the legendary group’s new radio hit, “Like A Good Neighbor.”
It’s the second radio track from the group’s 25th album, “Live From San Francisco” (Tyscot Records),” which debuted at No. 7 on Billboard Magazine’s gospel chart this past autumn.
The crux of the “Good Neighbor” challenge is for people to do a good deed and then post a video of themselves talking about it on either their Facebook, Instagram or Twitter account with the hashtag #GoodNeighborRanceAllenGroup.
The idea for the challenge arose as a result of the recent hostility that has permeated the country as a result of an acrimonious 2016 presidential election, the rise in hate crimes and the on-going tensions between minority communities and law enforcement because of several high profile police brutality incidents.

The Rance Allen Group was formed in 1967 in Monroe, MI as a self-contained band. In 1972, they signed to Stax Records’ Gospel Truth subsidiary where they recorded a series of gritty gospel songs that won them main-stage tours with R&B headliners such as Isaac Hayes and Barry White. The group signed with Tyscot Records in 2001 and have since become known for signature hits such as “Something About The Name Jesus,” “Miracle Worker,” “Closest Friend,” “A Lil’ Louder (Clap Your Hands)” and “You That I Trust.”
