Emerging Christian artist Josiah Queen is making waves in early 2026 with his latest single, Demons, which has rapidly become one of the most notable releases of the year so far. Released on January 16, 2026, via Capitol Christian Music Group and F&L Music Group, Demons has achieved impressive chart success on both Christian and broader genre charts.
The track debuted at No. 4 on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart, and also charted at No. 16 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart and No. 7 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart - marking one of Queen's most significant commercial breakthroughs. It also appeared high on the Christian Digital Song Sales and Christian Streaming Songs charts, underscoring the song's reach across multiple listening audiences.
Written by Queen alongside Dylan Thomas, John Michael Howell, and Zac Lawson, Demons blends introspective lyricism with a soaring musical build that mirrors the song's message of confronting fear and spiritual struggle with bold faith. Its lyrical themes about resilience and spiritual victory have resonated strongly with listeners, especially as communities continue to seek hope in times of uncertainty and emotional battle.
Queen has explained that the song was born from a deeply personal place, wrestling with internal challenges and finding strength through prayer and trust in God's presence - a perspective that aligns naturally with the faith journeys of many fans and believers.
Already supported by an official music video and strong social media engagement, Demons is poised to be one of the defining Christian singles of early 2026 - not just for its chart performance, but for its faith‑rooted testimony of spiritual victory and courage through Christ.
