NASHVILLE, TENN. / SEATTLE, WASH. (APRIL 18, 2026) - Singer-songwriter, author, and worship leader Tasha Layton has teamed up with fellow CCM artist Ben Fuller for a powerful new version of her song "Meet Me In The Valley." Originally released on her latest studio album Life In Me and now impacting radio, this special collaboration offers a fresh take on a deeply personal anthem. Listen to the new version now.
"I'm so thankful to be releasing 'Meet Me In The Valley' with my friend Ben Fuller," shares Layton. "Ben and I both understand valleys because of what we've walked through in life. My prayer is that listeners hear our testimonies in our voices."
Written by Layton, her husband Keith Everette Smith, Jacob Sooter, and Meredith Andrews, the song was inspired by Layton's own journey. It serves as a reminder that God meets us in our lowest moments, is present in every struggle, and is faithful never to leave us alone.
Ben Fuller adds, "I'm so blessed by Tasha's heart for Jesus. It's an honor to sing alongside someone who has experienced God's faithfulness, even in the valleys."
Building on the song's message, Layton will soon release a special 30-minute documentary inspired by "Meet Me In The Valley." Earlier this year, she stepped away from the noise of everyday life and spent three days alone camping in Death Valley, seeking stillness, clarity, and a deeper connection with God. What followed was a powerful and deeply personal journey. Stay tuned for more details on the film's release.
