KALAMAZOO, Mich. — April 22, 2026 — Kingdom Impact Group, LLC (KIG) announces a new publishing administration partnership with emerging Christian artist and songwriter Josh Grove, marking a strategic step in supporting the next phase of his rapidly growing music career.

Under this agreement, Josh Grove will retain 100% ownership of his songs, while Kingdom Impact Group provides publishing administration and backend royalty support across performance, mechanical and digital performance income streams. The partnership is designed to ensure Grove’s catalog is fully registered, protected and positioned to capture all available royalties as his reach continues to expand.

“At this stage in Josh’s career, it’s not just about releasing music — it’s about building the right foundation behind the scenes,” said Mike Laxton, founder and CEO of Kingdom Impact Group. “Josh is an incredibly gifted artist with a clear calling, and we’re honored to come alongside him to help steward what God is doing through his music.”

The partnership comes at a pivotal time following the release of Grove’s latest single, “New Life,” a Christian pop/rock anthem centered on Christ’s sacrifice and the transformative power of His resurrection. The track continues to build momentum across digital platforms and further establishes Grove as one of the most promising young voices in Christian music.

In addition to his recent releases, Grove has earned national recognition through placements on The Weekend Top 20 Countdown, chart success with “Rain or Shine (feat. KJ-52)” and multiple songwriting competition honors. At just 16 years old, his combination of authentic faith, strong songwriting and growing audience reach signals a trajectory that extends far beyond early success.

This partnership ensures that as Grove’s music continues to gain traction, the infrastructure is in place to support long-term sustainability, accurate royalty collection and global rights management.

“I am excited to enter into this new partnership with Mike Laxton and the team at Kingdom Impact Group, who will now serve as my publishing administrator,” Grove said. “This allows me to focus more on the creative side of being a music artist without managing the backend publishing infrastructure. Mike’s genuine heart and passion for Kingdom connections make this partnership feel divinely aligned.”

Kingdom Impact Group continues to work selectively with artists who demonstrate both creative excellence and a clear sense of purpose, providing tailored support across radio promotion, public relations and publishing administration.

“New Life” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
