Grammy winning Christian artist Matthew West has released a brand new version of his number-one song “Truth Be Told”  featuring Carly Pearce.

Matthew said about the duet: “I’m honored to have Carly join me on this new version of ‘Truth Be Told. Since her first single, ‘Every Little Thing,’ I’ve been a huge fan. There’s an honesty in her voice that convinces you she’s not just singing, she’s feeling every word she’s singing. It was a special thing to hear that same honest vocal delivery brought to this song about being honest. I’m so excited for the world to hear this duet.”

Carly shared with her fans, “My faith is such a huge part of my life. I’ve been praying for the right opportunity to show more of my heart, and ‘Truth Be Told’ felt meant to be. Not only am I such a fan of Matthew’s, this lyric has been the anthem of my life over the last year. Being transparent and vulnerable is how we connect with others. I’m so excited to be a part of this collaboration!”

Lady A is back with their latest single “Like A Lady,” co-written by Lady A’s Hillary Scott with Dave Barnes, Michelle Buzz, Martin Johnson and Brandon Paddock and produced by Dann Huff.

“Like A Lady” is “an upbeat, attitude-filled song about living life on your own terms and living like a lady, whatever that means to you.” Scott said she took inspiration for the song from two of country music’s other leading ladies: Dolly Parton and Shania Twain: “As we were writing it, I was like, ‘It’s always been my dream to do a song that combines the things I love about Dolly Parton’s ‘9 to 5’ and Shania Twain’s ‘Man! I Feel Like a Woman!’ – two of the most strong, powerful female songs ever. So it was like ‘How can we do our version of that?’”

“Like A Lady” is the band’s first single release since last year’s No. 1 hit “Champagne Night.” Take a look at the making of the music video for the new single – here.
