The Fighter by Seth Knappen

The Fighter is a concept album about strength, resilience, and the "fighting spirit," presented through an exploration of the inner life of the one who gets knocked down over and over again, only to get back up and dust off for a rematch. As usual, the songs are written from a personal space that speaks to the lived experience of the author, almost dying as a child after being hit by a car and later taking up boxing and free-fighting as a part of the coping process. And yet the album's message is universal and speaks to anyone who walks a path of hardship with messages of comfort and inspiration.

Musically, The Fighter melds together 'traditional' songcraft with sonic exploration, interspersing moments of words and melody with contemplative soundscapes.
