Riley Clemmons Releases New Album, “Church Pew”

September 25, 2023

Today, multi-talented artist and one of People Magazine’s Emerging Artists Riley Clemmons has released her long awaited third studio album, Church Pew via Capitol CMG. From the introspective and hopeful opening piano chords of “Church Pew” to the heartbreaking loss and grief reflected in “This Side of Heaven,” Riley’s heart is on full display throughout the songs on Church Pew. This past Spring, Riley debuted the first single from the album, “Loved By You,” to critical acclaim and has since surpassed 4.4 million streams worldwide. The follow up single, “Miracle,” has garnered over two million streams and has been used in videos across social media celebrating everything from new babies and weddings to overcoming battles with disease and addiction. Church Pew is now available HERE.

“Creating this album allowed me to rediscover what truly inspires me and resonates with me as a songwriter and a 23 year-old woman who loves Jesus” shares Riley. “I’m overjoyed and excited to finally share this collection of songs and stories. My hope is that listeners will be able to find their own stories of faith, joy, and healing intertwined within these lyrics and melodies.”

Tomorrow night, Riley will celebrate the release of Church Pew by debuting a few of the new songs live at the iconic Grand Ole Opry. This marks her second time performing at the legendary venue, having made her debut in 2022. Tickets are available HERE.

Later this month, Riley will join Zach Williams on his “A Hundred Highways” tour followed by the “I Don’t Want Christmas To End Tour” through the end of the year. Tickets are now on sale for all dates HERE.

I think I was born with a pair of headphones attached to my head!

I have always loved radio and was introduced to Contemporary Christian Music when I was a lowly freshman in high school, way back in 1977! "Praise the Lord" by The Imperials, "Your Love Broke Through" by Keith Green and others were the first songs I heard and played over and over again!
