Tommee Profitt and Sam Tinnesz have teamed up to create an anticipated, experiential album like never before, the new project, titled The Fall, will be available to pre-save. The project’s first single will also drop tomorrow.

With a gigantic sync presence, Tommee and Sam have 600+ tv/film placements and are ready to make an explosive impact on the industry. This concept album, along with accompanying visuals, is set for an April 2025 release with Capitol/Interscope records.

BEC recording artist, author and chart-topper Tasha Layton announces her first-ever live worship album, Worship Through It Live. The nine-track project, recorded at Hope UC in Thompson’s Station, Tenn., will release Mar. 7, 2025. Fans who preorder here will instantly receive the GRAMMY-nominated song “Praise,” which is also now available across all digital platforms.
“Most people know me as a CCM artist, or they know some of my songs because they’re on the radio, but I’ve been a worship leader just about my whole life,” Tasha Layton shares. “When I started releasing music, I was just singing what was on my heart. Some of what came out wasn’t necessarily congregational-type songs, but I believed I was to release them. A worship project feels natural to me and falls in line with who I’ve always been, so it’s special to me that I’m getting to release it.”
Stream Full Album Below
Worship Through It Live was captured during an honest night of raw worship with friends that took place just 10 days after Layton and her team had the initial idea to produce a live recording.
The collection showcases a mix of original selections, including a new powerful live version of Layton’s most recent No. 1 hit, “Worship Through It (feat. Chris Brown),” and opening anthem “God of Deliverance”; as well as a host of familiar favorites like Elevation Worship’s “Praise,” Phil Wickham’s “Living Hope” and Red Rocks Worship’s “Good Plans,” the latter of which proved to be a standout moment during the recording.
This spring, Layton is poised to take music from her inaugural live album directly to fans on the “Trust Again Tour” with bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst. Kicking off Feb. 25 in Flowood, Miss., together, Layton and TerKeurst, will bring a special evening of worship and Bible teaching to nine cities across the U.S. before concluding Mar. 9 in Gig Harbor, Wash.
The outing with TerKeurst will commence a year of significant touring for Layton. 2025 will also find the songstress growing her faith-based initiative, Boundless, a non-profit dedicated to educating and equipping the church with resources to aid in mental health. Additionally, fans won’t have to wait long for even more new music from the acclaimed vocalist, as Layton is slated to deliver her next studio project later this year.
“Jesus and Bocephus” is more than just a country song; it’s a heartfelt ode to a life well-lived and a soul gone too soon. In this poignant tribute, Richard Lynch masterfully intertwines themes of friendship, faith, and legacy, creating a piece that resonates with anyone who has lost someone close. The track is Lynch’s love letter to his late friend Tim Bennington, a fellow musician and steadfast believer, capturing both the sorrow of parting and the comfort of spiritual endurance.
At its core, the song reflects a quintessential element of country music: storytelling rooted in deep emotion and unwavering faith. Lynch paints a vivid picture of his friend’s character, honoring the memory of a man who never shied away from his faith. With lyrics like, “He was never ashamed to say the Lord’s name / He prayed to God every night,” Lynch portrays a spiritual devotion that feels both personal and universal, reminding listeners of the enduring power of belief, even in the face of grief.
The juxtaposition of “Jesus” and “Bocephus” in the song’s title symbolizes the tension that lies at the heart of country music—the dance between the sacred and the secular. It’s a nod to the genre’s duality: faith and sin, redemption and rebellion, church pews and bar stools. Lynch understands that life’s most profound moments exist in the spaces between these extremes, and his storytelling reflects this delicate balance with grace and authenticity.
The accompanying music video amplifies the song’s emotional weight, offering a raw and intimate portrayal of Lynch’s grief and gratitude. The imagery feels personal, as if viewers are invited to witness a private moment of remembrance. Lynch’s sincerity shines through each frame, reinforcing the idea that music is a powerful vessel for preserving memories. Through song, Lynch ensures that Tim Bennington’s spirit lives on—a sentiment that resonates deeply with anyone who has ever lost a loved one.
“Jesus and Bocephus” is a song for everyone—the Sunday morning churchgoers and the Saturday night honky-tonkers alike. It speaks to the heart of human experience: the joy of friendship, the pain of loss, and the hope of reunion in a higher place. In a world often divided by belief systems and lifestyles, Lynch finds unity in the shared human need for connection, faith, and storytelling.
