ABOUT MERCYME

Since launching their career-defining single, “I Can Only Imagine,” MercyMe has propelled nearly 30 songs to the top of the charts, resulting in more than 65 multi-format No.1’s. Holding the record for the most No.1’s on Billboard’s Christian Airplay and Christian AC Airplay charts, the beloved collective has accrued a shelf full of accolades that boasts numerous Artist of the

Year wins, GRAMMY® nominations, GMA Dove Awards, K-LOVE Fan Awards, American Music Awards, and a Billboard Music Award. Named Billboard’s Top Christian Artist of the 2000 and 2010 decades, the 10x-Platinum band has sold out some of the country’s most prestigious venues, including Radio City Music Hall and Red Rocks Amphitheatre. In addition, the celebrated act has appeared on “Good Morning America,” the “TODAY” show, “CBS This Morning,” “FOX & Friends,” ABC News, CNN and the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, as well as in the pages of Entertainment Weekly, The New York Times, USA Today and more.

MercyMe made history in 2014 when “I Can Only Imagine” exceeded 2 million digital downloads, making the now 5x-Platinum hit the first song in Christian music to ever be certified Platinum and double-Platinum in the digital domain. In 2018, the once-in-a-lifetime single inspired a major motion picture based on Millard’s life. I Can Only Imagine 2, the film’s highly anticipated follow-up – focusing on the story behind MercyMe’s powerful declaration, “Even If” — is slated to premiere in theaters Feb. 20, 2026, via Lionsgate. The sequel features an all-star cast that includes J. Michael Finley, Milo Ventimiglia, Dennis Quaid, Trace Adkins and Sophie Skelton. Ahead of the film’s debut, the group will release their 12th studio album, Wonder & Awe (Aug.8,2025), featuring their latest No.1 single, “Oh Death.”

ABOUT BEN FULLER

Ben Fuller’s life was completely changed when he moved to Nashville, TN to chase a dream. Ben grew up in Southern Vermont on his family dairy farm. Due to generations of hurt in his family, Ben struggled with certain aspects of growing up and turned to cocaine and alcohol at a young age. He went through several major events of loss due to these substances and the associated lifestyle. Motivated to change, he moved to Nashville to pursue a career as a country singer in late 2018. A family close to Ben ministered to him by having him over often for dinner and eventually took him to church. After feeling the impact of their kindness and discipleship, he knew he wanted that life too. Today, Ben lives completely sober, while sharing his story filled with hope, mercy and grace. By turning his testimony into songs, he has been rejuvenated with a new passion and mission; to share his story with the world and all who are ready to listen. Ben was nominated for the first time at the 2023 K-LOVE Fan Awards in the category of Breakout Single of The Year (“Who I Am”) and at the 2023 Dove Awards in the category of New Artist of the Year. In 2024, he was nominated for the Dove Award for Bluegrass/Country/Roots Recorded Song of the Year (“If I Got Jesus”). “If I Got Jesus” has grown to amass over 45M streams as well as 200M views and 350k creations on TikTok.

Additionally, Ben has toured with Casting Crowns, MercyMe, Zach Williams, Big Daddy Weave, CAIN, and others.

ABOUT PETER BURTON

Peter Burton is a singer-songwriter and worship leader whose music draws from his personal journey with anxiety and mental health, pointing listeners to the hope and peace he’s found in Jesus. His debut single, “Where Would I Be,” reached #1 on Christian radio for 9 consecutive weeks, spending 38 total weeks on the charts. His second single, “So Long,” has just entered top 20 on Christian radio charts. Stepping into his solo career, Burton is touring nationally and opening for artists including Matthew West and Anne Wilson. With an energetic, hope-filled sound rotted in authenticity and conviction, he continues to establish himself as one of Christian music’s rising voices.
