NASHVILLE, Tenn. - PLATINUM-certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson releases "Who I Am To You," available everywhere now via Capitol Christian Music Group. A declaration of identity rooted in Christ, the new song pushes back against insecurity, comparison and the labels the world can place on us, pointing instead to the truth of who God says we are. "Who I Am To You," which garnered over 800K views on socials pre-release, also impacts Christian radio today and arrives with an all-new music video, directed by Alexa Campbell.

WATCH: "WHO I AM TO YOU"

"'Who I Am To You' is a reminder that our identity isn't defined by the labels the world puts on us, it's defined by what God says is true about us," shares Wilson. "This song is all about trading the lies, insecurities and negative labels we've believed for the truth of who God created us to be. I want this to be an encouraging, faith-filled movement where we remind each other who we really are in Christ and choose to walk confidently in that truth."

"Who I Am To You" serves as the first track from her next chapter and follows the July release of Stars (Blue Hour Deluxe), which expanded Wilson's latest album with five additional songs, including "Me & Jesus," "Maker's Mark" with Drew Baldridge and "Still Do" with Cole Swindell. "Still Do" recently earned Wilson and Swindell a Dove Award nomination, adding to Wilson's growing list of honors across Christian and country music.

Wilson will take the new music overseas next, appearing at Big Church Festival in Pulborough, U.K. on Aug. 28 and The Long Road Festival in Lutterworth, U.K. on Aug. 30. She then returns stateside to launch the fall leg of The STARS Tour on Sept. 10 in Portland, Ore. The recently extended run includes 24 dates across the U.S. with special guests Peter Burton and Aodhán King joining on select stops. Tickets are available at annewilsonofficial.com.

Earlier this summer, Wilson released her third book, "Rebel: Following Jesus When the World Walks the Other Way," via W Publishing, an imprint of Thomas Nelson. The release followed her 2026 K-LOVE Fan Awards Book Impact Award win for her "Hey Girl" 40-Day Devotional.

With more than 2 billion career streams, Wilson is cementing herself as "one of contemporary Christian music's most dynamic trailblazers" (People.com). A GRAMMY nominee and multiple Dove Award winner, Wilson continues to use her music to point listeners back to faith, truth and their identity in Christ, carrying that message across both Christian and country music.

ABOUT ANNE WILSON:

Anne Wilson makes music where faith and country meet, a rare space where honesty, grief and hope live side by side. At just 24, she has already crossed the 2 billion streams milestone and emerged as one of the most distinctive new voices in both Christian and country music.

Her third studio album, Stars, captures a young artist growing up on record. Shaped by the tragic loss of her brother Jacob, Wilson's faith could have been shattered -- but instead it was strengthened. That tension, of wrestling with God yet still loving Jesus, defines her music and makes her profoundly relatable. "Faith isn't about never questioning," she says. "It's about holding on in the middle of the storm."

Stars threads together themes of grief, growth, maturity, and wonder, carried by Wilson's soaring vocals and country-pop production. From the wide-eyed imagery of the title track to the raw prayer of "Carry Me" and the redemption arc of "Dead in the Water," the album reflects both the hardship of loss and the joy of new perspective.

Alongside the album, Wilson is delivering her new music to fans in person on The STARS Tour. She's also released a 40-day "Hey Girl" devotional. Named after her encouraging anthem, the devotional is aimed at young readers, extending her message of identity and Christ-centered hope beyond the stage. Following her record-breaking album REBEL, which boldly defined what it looks like to stand firm in faith, Wilson continues that powerful message in her new book, "Rebel." Written to encourage readers of all ages to learn what it means to follow Jesus, even when the crowd walks the other way.

Anne Wilson is still becoming, still wrestling and still rejoicing - but Stars proves she's shining brighter not in spite of the struggle, but because of it.
