Nashville, Tenn. (January 30, 2026) — GRAMMY® Award-winning, Curb Records duo for KING + COUNTRY return with their new single “Ever & Ever Before,” available now. Arriving just ahead of Valentine’s Day, the song offers a refreshing take on romance, celebrating enduring commitment, vow renewals and the choice to love the same person again and again.

Rather than capturing the rush of new love, “Ever & Ever Before” is written for the couples who’ve built a life together through the mountaintops, the challenges and everything in between.

Watch the lyric video here.

“This song isn’t about the fireworks at the beginning,” says Joel Smallbone. “It’s about the long haul, and choosing to choose each other again and again.”

‘Ever and Ever Before’ feels like a reflection and a celebration of the years of marriage we’ve shared with our wives. It just keeps getting better and better with time, and to have both MORIAH and Courtney lend their voices once more to a project like this is a special moment for us,” shares Luke.

Adding to the personal nature of the release, Joel and Luke invited their wives, MORIAH and Courtney Smallbone, to join them on the track, marking a rare family collaboration rooted in lived experience and shared commitment.

“Ever & Ever Before” follows the continued success of the duo’s current radio single “World on Fire,” the first release from their upcoming album, which is currently #8 at Christian radio and resonating with listeners nationwide. Beyond music, the band continues to expand their creative reach with their documentary FOR KING + COUNTRY: NO TURNING BACK, now streaming on Wonder Project’s subscription channel on Prime Video in the U.S.
