NASHVILLE, TENN. (OCTOBER 08, 2024) Fair Trade Services' newest CCM duo Caleb & John celebrated their first No. 1 radio single this past week. The song "Somebody Like Me (feat. CAIN)" topped the Mediabase Christian AC, Billboard Christian Airplay, and Christian AC charts, and was co-written by Caleb & John and Colby Wedgeworth.
“When John and I met a couple of years ago, we decided to sing about hope. And we could not have picked a song with a better message to be our debut No. 1 single," shares Caleb.
John adds, "We want the entire world to know that no matter who you are, and no matter what you’ve done, Jesus will change your life if you let Him! What a wild ride it's been, and we are so proud and grateful for CAIN and our whole team!”
The No. 1 song followed the duo's 2023 song "Hallelujah Feeling," which was Christian radio's highest charting debut single last year. Caleb & John were also named the No. 1 Billboard Top New Christian Radio Artist as well as the No. 4 Billboard Top New Christian Artist in 2023 along with a 2024 K-LOVE Award nomination for "Breakout Single of the Year."
"Fair Trade couldn’t be more proud to work with Caleb & John," shares James Rueger, Chief Creative Officer for Fair Trade Services. "This achievement is a testament to their passion, powerful vocals, and exceptional musicianship. We know this is just the beginning and we are excited to see what God does next through their ministry."
Fans can currently listen to the No. 1 song as well as "Hallelujah Feeling," "Missing Jesus" and "Nothing But The Goodness" while the group is writing and recording the remainder of the songs for their full-length debut album to release in 2025. Caleb & John have toured with Micah Tyler, Jeremy Camp, and CAIN while being on the road this fall with Consumed By Fire followed by a tour with CAIN next year.
MORE ABOUT CALEB & JOHN: New CCM duo Caleb & John are writing their definition of brotherhood. Two men who came to music in completely different ways, Caleb & John have created their distinctive sound with joy-fueled, high-energy vocals paired with vibrant musicality all pointing to Jesus. In short, their music is hopeful and fun, just like Caleb & John themselves. Before “Hallelujah Feeling” became the highest charting debut single released to Christian radio in 2023, Caleb Crino & John Secker were playing for artists like Sam Hunt, Katy Nichole, CAIN, and Anne Wilson.
