Today, performer, vocalist, and songwriter Franni Cash releases her next single, “Church Clothes” which is her first new music since her debut EP, Wild Child was released earlier this year. “Church Clothes” is the latest progression of Franni’s creative journey as a solo artist and sees her settling into a sound that blends old-school pop and rock with a modern-day twist. In the song, Franni Cash challenges the idea that one must look and act a certain way to be worthy or loved.
As Franni tells it, “At its heart “Church Clothes” is about the freedom of knowing we don’t have to put on a facade to come into God’s presence or to be loved by Him. He doesn’t care how polished or put-together we appear—He loves us right where we are. I hope and pray that when people hear “Church Clothes,” they feel the same freedom and joy I’ve experienced by laying down my efforts to impress God or people and allowing myself to be fully loved by Him. It’s liberating, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.”

Bethel Music’s Kristene DiMarco releases her latest EP, “Memorandum,” on all major streaming platforms today. Accompanying the release is the official music video for the focus track, “Stay In The River,” premiering today as well.
“Stay In The River” invites listeners to remain in the river of God’s presence, where His kindness and love continually wash over us. It reminds listeners that surrender is not something to fear, but a place of trust, where His friendship gently shapes and softens our hearts.
“One of the themes that kept surfacing was surrender,” says Kristene DiMarco. “This letting go. Don’t be afraid to let go. Stay in the river. Stay under the water. Let Him do what He wants. Let Him soften all those hard edges.”
The five-track project follows her previously released single, “Song For My Children,” which also appears on the EP “MEMORANDUM.” This latest offering from Kristene DiMarco features songs that were written individually, but reveal a common thread woven through them: humility and surrender. Through raw honesty and tender worship, Kristene DiMarco invites listeners into the kind of closeness that only comes through surrender – where letting go becomes the doorway to deeper closeness with the Holy Spirit.
Recorded in the intimacy of her own home, “MEMORANDUM” carries the weight of legacy and the warmth of family, with every lyric anchored in Scripture and personal testimony. Songs like “Stay In The River” and “Letter To Doubt And Unbelief” speak to the ongoing journey of softening hearts, leaving behind unbelief, and embracing the flow of God’s Spirit.

“When I wrote these songs, I wrote them as individual songs. I didn’t think they would all end up on the same project,” KristeneDiMarco said. “But the further we moved forward with it, the more I began to recognize a theme running through them. And really, that theme is humility. If you asked me, ‘What has God taught you?’– well, I just turned forty this year. And the main thing I feel I’m walking away with after four decades of life is this: God is after surrender.
He’s after us laying down our lives. And it’s not because He’s selfish or demanding, as if He just has to have everything. It’s because surrender equals proximity to the Lord. The more you lay down, the more you let go, the closer you can get. The closer you draw to Him, the more you experience His Spirit. And that’s what life is really about.”
At its core, Kristene DiMarco’s “MEMORANDUM” is less about striving and more about overflow – a reminder that our truest calling is simply to come, drink deeply of His presence, and let rivers of living water flow from within. With humility as its center, this project is an offering of friendship with God, shaped by surrender and marked by His nearness.

Thrive Worship completes their deluxe collection of singles released this summer, “The One Who Saves” and “Prison Break,” now joined by the brand-new track “Jesus Song.” The series of singles, paired with kaleidoscopic imagery of a lamb, dove, and lion, presents a unified view of the different beautiful perspectives of Christ.
“We’re living in a time when people are searching for truth, hope, and stability,” shares Thrive Worship. “This song (‘Jesus Song’) reminds us that all of those things are found in Christ alone. It re-centers us on the unshakable reality of the gospel: Jesus has already conquered sin and death, and He reigns forever. In a world full of uncertainty and distraction, this song calls the church back to the foundation—lifting the only name that truly deserves all glory and honor.”
The deluxe single opens with the new song, “Jesus Song,” which was born out of a desire to capture the fullness of Jesus—who He is, what He has done, and what is still to come—offering listeners a complete picture of His life, death, resurrection, and promised return. The second track, “Prison Break,” reflects on the resurrection and the freedom we experience in Christ. Lastly, the song “The One Who Saves” is a powerful declaration of the saving work of the Cross, the holiness of Christ, and the worthiness of Jesus for all our worship.
They add, “Our prayer is that this song would lead the church into deeper worship and a greater awareness of the fullness of who Jesus is. That it helps believers not only remember the cross and the resurrection but also look forward to His return with anticipation. Ultimately, we want it to stir up unity in the Church—so that when we sing, we join together with ‘a billion hallelujahs’ as one voice, giving all glory to the Lamb of God.”
