NASHVILLE, TENN. / SEATTLE, WASH. (MARCH 27, 2026) — Chart-topping singer-songwriter Tasha Layton enlists new pop artist Claire Leslie for an original collaboration on “Whispers,” available today across all digital streaming platforms. Fans can listen to the effervescent track here.
 
Awash with vibrant sonics, the modern pop offering reminds listeners that our prayers don’t have to be perfect to be heard. Together, the vocalists affirm that God intently listens to the doubts, questions, and fears we can’t even verbalize.
 
“I am so thankful that God hears the quietness of our hearts in the times we don’t have words to adequately express how we feel,” says Tasha Layton of the message behind the song. “He’s always listening, even to what is unsaid.”
 
Layton is currently supporting Colton Dixon on “The Love I Have For You Tour” with dates running through the beginning of May. Across the 23-city spring outing, the acclaimed songstress is sharing new music from her latest studio project, 2025’s Life In Me, including her duet with Dixon, “Hindsight,” and poignant ballad “Meet Me In The Valley,” her current radio single.
 
ABOUT TASHA LAYTON: Since first captivating radio audiences in 2020, Tasha Layton has become one of Christian music’s most celebrated female vocalists. Her full-length debut, How Far, delivered multiple chart-topping hits, including the No. 1 title track “How Far,” the No. 1 smash “Look What You’ve Done,” and her breakthrough single “Into The Sea (It’s Gonna Be OK).” In 2023, her song “Never” ranked among the top Christian songs of the year, and in 2024, she earned her third No. 1 radio single with “Worship Through It (feat. Chris Brown).” In Spring 2025, Layton released her first live-recorded worship album, Worship Through It Live. Her holiday projects—This Is Christmas and the GMA Dove Award-nominated This Is Christmas (Live From Fisher Center)—have also become beloved seasonal classics.
Layton’s newest album, Life In Me, was released in October 2025 and features a dynamic collection of songs reflecting her walk with Christ, with collaborations from Chris Brown, Rachael Lampa, Colton Dixon, and Tim Hughes. Before launching her solo career, Layton appeared on Season 9 of American Idol and spent four years as a backing vocalist for pop superstar Katy Perry. She is also a published author with titles including the guided prayer journal Boundless: Moving Freedom From Your Head To Your Heart, Look What You’ve Done, and the children’s book A Big and Boundless Love. Tasha and her husband, Keith, share two children—Levi and Lyla—and reside on a farm just outside of Nashville.

ABOUT BEC RECORDINGS: BEC Recordings exists at the intersection of faith and culture. For more than 25 years, the label has amplified artists whose music has reached beyond church walls — onto Billboard charts, into film and TV, across major retail campaigns, and through sold-out festival grounds. Today, that mission continues with a current roster that includes Cory Asbury, Tasha Layton, Gracie Binion, Jordan St. Cyr and several others — artists carrying the torch lit by BEC alumni like Jeremy Camp, Hawk Nelson, Kutless, 7eventh Time Down, and The O.C. Supertones, who got their start or built their careers with the label. BEC has proven that music rooted in conviction can also dominate the mainstream conversation — and after all these years, that legacy shows no signs of slowing down.
