The question circulating through both Christian and country music circles is gaining momentum: Is Brandon Lake working on a country album?
While no official album announcement has been made, mounting evidence suggests the six-time GRAMMY® winner is intentionally stepping into the country space in a significant way.
Over the past year, Lake has increasingly blurred genre lines, collaborating with major country voices and embracing a more roots-driven sound. His duet "Hard Fought Hallelujah" with Jelly Roll and "When a Cowboy Prays" alongside Cody Johnson showcased a natural fusion of worship themes and country storytelling, resonating strongly with audiences across formats.
Recent reports indicate Lake has spent time in Nashville writing with prominent country hitmakers, including Thomas Rhett, HARDY, and Lainey Wilson, among others. Social media teasers from those sessions have only fueled speculation that a dedicated country-leaning project is in the works.
Sources close to the writing camps suggest the material blends faith-forward lyrics with authentic country production - steel guitars, organic textures, and narrative-driven songwriting - while maintaining the spiritual depth that has defined Lake's career.
Lake has never shied away from expanding creative boundaries. Known for worship anthems that carry emotional intensity and bold declarations of faith, he appears to be channeling that same passion through a country lens - one that emphasizes storytelling, perseverance, and redemption.
Rather than abandoning his worship roots, this emerging chapter seems positioned as an extension of his mission: meeting new audiences while remaining grounded in faith.
No official release date or project title has been confirmed. However, with high-profile collaborations already making waves and writing sessions reportedly yielding a substantial catalog of material, industry insiders expect formal announcements in the coming months.
If realized, a country album from Brandon Lake could mark one of the most notable crossover moments between contemporary Christian music and mainstream country in recent years.
For now, fans in both genres are watching closely - and listening carefully.
