Riley Clemmons will release her first full-length project with Capitol CMG on Aug. 3. The album includes the single “Broken Prayers” and newly released “Better For It.” Clemmons will spend the release date of her album at Ryan Seacrest Foundation’s Seacrest Studios at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt in her hometown of Nashville.
“Music has always been a way for me to find light and hope in the middle of darkness,” shares Clemmons. “Lyrics and melodies unite people in such a beautifully unique way, showing us we’re not that different from one another. I hope these songs help others to find hope, light and unity, just as writing them helped me to find my faith through the lens of a new perspective.”
Released earlier this month, “Better For It” was streamed more than half a million times globally in the first 10 days. Spotify’s New Music Friday, Apple Music’s Breaking Pop and SiriusXM have already picked up on the track. The music video, which was filmed in one continuous take, already has more than 350k views on YouTube.
“Broken Prayers” has been streamed 14+ million times globally, in addition to a multi-week top 5 reign at Hot AC radio and Apple Music playlists placements such as Future Hits, Pure Pop, Charm and Breaking Pop.
Hitting over 25 markets this fall, Clemmons will join friends Danny Gokey and Tauren Wells for “The Hope Encounter” Tour this September.
