NASHVILLE, TN—March 3rd, 2026: Rising Contemporary Christian music artist Mary-Clair recently attended the Lionsgate major faith film sequel I Can Only Imagine 2 Nashville premiere and red carpet while her newest song “There’s A God” continues its streaming ascent. The gifted singer/songwriter is portrayed in the movie by her sister Ruthie Brickell, holding a deeply personal connection to the project, and adding an authentic and heartfelt layer to the story behind one of contemporary Christian music’s most beloved anthems.

As momentum continues to build with “There’s A God,” produced by Jeff Pardo, available everywhere now via Nashville-based Vere Music, Mary-Clair’s video for the track, shot in Nashville, is directed by Evan Smith and Duncan Smith. The acoustic-driven ballad is quickly becoming a fan favorite and earning placements on multiple faith-based playlists across Apple Music, Amazon Music, Spotify and more. An official visualizer for her past single, “Falling” is also now streaming on YouTube HERE.

“I am so proud of my dad and all of my dear friends in the MercyMe family for the hard work and honesty they put into this film. It’s a true story of balancing hard times and blessings and learning how to find peace in both. I hope you can find time to go see this movie in theaters... and you might hear my name mentioned in a scene!”said Mary-Clair.

“There’s A God” and “Falling” are among the many highlights found on Mary-Clair’s breakthrough debut album, Enough, available everywhere now via Vere Music HERE. Produced by 2x GRAMMY? Award-winning producer and songwriter Tedd T (Dolly Parton, for KING & COUNTRY, MercyMe), apart from “There’s A God,” the collection sees the gifted 22-year-old Nashville native forging her own distinctive vision of contemporary Christian pop on such recent hit singles as “Red Eye,” “Enough,” “Your Love,” and “Heaven In the Way,” the latter two joined by official music videos streaming now alongside additional visuals, “Story Behind the Song” videos, and more at the Mary-Clair YouTube channel HERE.

“The entire Vere team is thrilled to be a part of the release of Mary-Clair's debut project, Enough. This has truly been a labor of love, working alongside Mary-Clair’s team of management, producers, and songwriters. The support from the DSP’s, radio, and the press has been a blessing. This record is amazing!,” says Vere Music President and Founder Rusty Harmon.

Recently gracing the debut cover of BREAKOUT Magazine, a new digital publication spotlighting indie and emerging Christian artists, Mary-Clair continues to make waves across the music landscape. Her growing profile includes features on the popular Shawna and LaLa: Life Beyond the Mic podcast, as well as an appearance on WSMV’s Today in Nashville, where she performed the uplifting Enough standout, “There’s A God” (streaming HERE). Plus recent and ongoing coverage in multiple media outlets, include THE CHRISTIAN BEAT, KINGDOM BUILDER, JESUS FREAK HIDEOUT, DIVINE MAGAZINE, GODTUBE MUSICand more.

In addition to the success of her latest album, Mary-Clair has also teamed up with renowned Christian hip-hop artist Tedashii for the powerful collaboration “Never Be the Same (Feat. Tedashii),” further showcasing her versatility and expanding creative reach.

Mary-Clair continues to build her presence as one of contemporary Christian pop’s most promising emerging voices. During GMA Dove Awards Week in Nashville, she was a featured Brickhouse Entertainment showcase performer, further elevating her profile within the industry. Her live performance resume continues to expand with appearances at Nashville’s renowned writers’ rounds, along with performances of the National Anthem at local and national sporting events.

ABOUT MARY-CLAIR:

Mary-Clair grew up in Nashville where she was moved to perform at an early age, thanks in part to her passion for such diverse artists as Michael Jackson, Queen, and Aerosmith, Christian rock icons DC Talk and Audio Adrenaline, and the more traditional gospel of CeCe Winans and the Gaither Vocal Band. By middle school, she was already getting serious about her calling, taking both voice and piano lessons while beginning to write songs in her journal. Her dreams began coming real in part thanks to Tedd T, one of Nashville’s most esteemed producer-songwriters, a chart-topping, multiple award-winner known for his groundbreaking work alongside such diverse artists as Celine Dion, Mutemath, Tauren Wells, and Lauren Daigle. Together they set to work crafting a singular creative approach that melds acoustic textures and symphonic backdrops to showcase Mary-Clair’s vocal power and deeply held faith.

Hailed by V13 Media as “contemporary Christian pop music that goes beyond the traditional boundaries of modern Christian music…a sonic realm for listeners to feel significant, a musical place where they are heard, seen, and appreciated, especially young girls.Enough fuses deeply relatable storytelling with incandescent melodies and modern-yet-timeless pop arrangements, resulting in an undeniably universal approach certain to inspire fervent emotion and personal action. With Enough, Mary-Clair puts truth to her committed belief that pop and Christian music do not necessarily have to be incompatible, her own extraordinary life’s journey enabling her to build a bridge between the two disparate worlds.

I made ‘Enough’ with young girls out there listening to the radio in mind,” Mary-Clair says. “I want them to know that it’s possible to listen to fun music and not have to give up certain values. These are songs that I poured my heart out into, and I just think that they are so timely in our world today, both musically and lyrically. Sometimes I listen to it and think, I can’t believe this is me. This is too good to be true.”
