August 9, 2024 - Los Angeles, CA - Aodhán King, founding member of multi-award winning group Hillsong Young & Free, makes his solo debut with the release of his new single, “Thank You So Much Jesus (feat. Paul Klein),” (Anotherland / Capitol Christian Music Group) now available on all major streaming platforms. This highly-anticipated track was written by Aodhán King, Ben Tan, and LANY’s Paul Klein, and produced by Ben Tan and award-winning industry veteran Jason Ingram.

In discussing the inspiration behind the song, the GRAMMY-nominated Australian artist shared, “For generations, people from all walks of life have tried to articulate how truly incredible Jesus is. It doesn’t always look or sound the same, but with every story and every song we are given another glimpse into the depths of His infinite love and kindness. What else is there to say but ‘thank you so much, Jesus’, for everything: for the cross, for the grace that we don’t deserve, and for the love that flips our world upside down, giving us a purpose and hope for the future. I don’t know about you, but I never wanna outgrow just simply saying thank you.”

Aodhán's journey to this release has been a profound one, characterized by gratitude and growth. “It’s taken me a long time to get to this moment of releasing music. Each step of the process has felt completely out of my control and as frustrating as that was, I look back now and I’m so grateful for the doors that were opened, and for those that were closed, cause they led me here, not exactly what I thought, but precisely what I needed and more.”

“Thank You So Much Jesus” originated from a heartfelt conversation between Aodhán and his close friends Ben Tan and Paul Klein. Aodhán expressed his deep connection to the song, having collaborated with Ben for over ten years and maintaining a strong friendship with Paul since their meeting at church in 2014. He emphasized the sacred space he aimed to create through his music, inviting others to freely worship God. “From the beginning, I was adamant that I wanted to create a sacred place for anybody to come and worship God freely. More specifically, I wanted to include the voices and artistry of my friends who love God and love worship but haven’t necessarily had the ability to do it in this way. Paul is that.”

Aodhán found his passion for music during high school while volunteering at Hillsong’s youth ministry. As a founding member of the twice GRAMMY-nominated band Hillsong Young & Free, King has achieved remarkable success, including over 1.2 billion streams in North America, multiple #1 singles, and performances at over 225 live events worldwide.

Aodhán has made significant contributions to beloved anthems such as Hillsong Young & Free’s “Sinking Deep” and “Highs and Lows,” Hillsong UNITED’s “Whole Heart (Hold Me Now),” and many more, showcasing his authentic storytelling and captivating melodic sensibilities.
