Not long ago, Jamie MacDonald was singing background vocals for other people's records. Now she's joining one of Christian music's biggest tours.
Phil Wickham announced his Fall 2026 Song of the Saints Tour will hit 16 cities across the U.S. - with Jamie MacDonald as special guest on every date.
The tour runs September through October, and for MacDonald, it marks another significant step in a rise that has been anything but ordinary.
MacDonald's story is one riddled with abandonment, addiction, and homelessness - but one that ultimately resolves in redemption. That backstory is exactly what made her music connect so fast.
Her debut single "Desperate" spent seven weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Christian AC chart. "Left It in the River" followed it to No. 1. And her third single, "Ain't No Way," released in March 2026, showcases her remarkable vocal range and a piano-forward R&B-pop melody with gospel choir accents - built around her personal testimony that God has never let her down.
MacDonald wrote the song saying: "Every time I've faced something impossible, God showed up. Every battle I've faced has only made me more confident in Him. There's truly no way He's gonna let me down."
MacDonald also appears on the Song of the Saints Deluxe album, collaborating with Wickham on a track called "Flowers" alongside fellow guests Lauren Daigle, Brandon Lake, Crowder, CAIN, Elevation Worship, Chris Tomlin, and Michael W. Smith.
For anyone who has watched this artist from the beginning, this season feels like exactly what her songs have always promised - that God really does make a way.
