Brad Moist, Sr. A&R/Brand Manager and Radio Director for Gotee Records says, “We are so grateful for the support from Christian radio for Terrian. She represents everything that Gotee stands for and why the label was created, which was to champion and support young artists who represent the entirety of humanity. We can’t thank the Hot AC/CHR stations enough who played this song and for being supporters of Terrian because it means much more than just a No. 1."

Stayed On Him (Isaiah 26:3),” which is also featured on
Genesis of Terrian, is reaching broader audiences across the CCM and Gospel genres.

The popular magazine
American Songwriter featured Terrian around the release of her EP, taking a deeper look into her method of writing songs. She shared with the magazine, “When it’s honest, truthful and is your story…nobody can sing that like you can. It’s important for me to be vulnerable, and be honest about how I’m feeling, where tension lies in my life.” Be sure to check out the full story
