Artist:Natalie Layne
Song:Amen
EP:Amen
Natalie Layne is a CCM singer who could have a big future if she can release more music. So far she has released 2 EPs and that's not enough. But I like what I have heard. Natalie is from Colorado Springs, CO. She grew up singing in church and decided she wanted a career in music. So she moved to Nashville and graduated from Belmont University and graduated with a bachelor's degree in commercial music and a master's degree in commercial piano. Before moving to Nashville she was a worship leader at New Life Church in Colorado Springs. She is currently a worship leader at Ethos Church in Nashville. Natalie self released an EP in 2017 followed by the album Be Human in 2020. Then she released a 2021 single and EP through Rixon Entertainment. They are more management company than record label. The EP had the desired effect as it got Natalie a record deal with the CCM label Centricity. They are distributed by Universal. The EP Amen was released in 2023 and she started touring and opening for Jeremy Camp and Chris Tomlin. Natalie writes and produces everything herself. And Amen has a more contemporary sound than I hear on a lot of CCM. And of course a lot of P&W sounds alike. So I like what I hear. The EP Amen is available as a budget CD. I would just like to see her release more music. She released a single earlier this year and the 2025 album Joy is mostly music that had already been released including Amen. One potential problem is that CCM superstar Lauren Daigle is also on Centricity and Natalie may have to move to a different label to get a decent promotion budget. Here's the video for Amen by Natalie Layne.
