Nashville, TN (February 18, 2025) - Christian artist George Case is releasing his deeply moving new single, “Praise You More,” to Christian Country, Inspirational, and Christian Soft AC radio today, inviting listeners into a powerful moment of prayer and worship. The song, written by longtime friend Barry Clement, is a heartfelt offering of praise and surrender, wrapped in the soft, prayerful tones that define Case’s signature style.

Produced by Jeremy Medkiff and George Case, “Praise You More” carries a gentle, reflective melody combined with deeply personal lyrics, creating a sacred space where believers can connect with God in a profound way.

For Case, this release is more than just another song—it’s a deeply personal moment of worship and a testament to a lifelong friendship. He and Clement first met in seventh grade, bonding over a shared love of music. Their journey took them through high school, military service—Case in the Army and Clement in the Navy—and decades of faith-filled ministry. Clement wrote “Praise You More” in 2006, and it has since been sung in churches, offering worshipers a humble yet powerful expression of devotion. Now, Case is honored to be the first artist to bring it to a worldwide audience.

“I know Barry’s heart for true worship and keeping it real,” Case shares. “It’s such an honor for me to sing this amazing song of praise.”

From serving in locations like Germany, Poland, and Israel to leading worship in his home church in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Case has devoted his life to faith and music. His previous release, “There Is a Place” (2022), reached listeners in 111 countries and garnered over 500,000 YouTube views, proving his ability to touch hearts through song.

Psalm 106:1 – Praise the LORD! Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good, for His steadfast love endures forever!
