Episode 72 | Taya | Hillsong United

Published: Jan. 25, 2023, 10:01 a.m.

On today's episode, we chat with Hillsong United's, Taya!  Driven by hundreds of millions of streams for \u201cOceans\u201d and others like \u201cTouch the Sky\u201d and \u201cWhole Heart (Hold Me Now),\u201d tracks led and stewarded by TAYA have amassed over one billion global streams.  While TAYA fully committed and immersed herself in the whirlwind of recording and touring with UNITED, she set aside her own songwriting for seven years. Still, she knew God\u2019s timing was purposeful. \u201cI knew it would emerge eventually, but I didn\u2019t know what it would be or look like,\u201d she says. \u201cI wanted to give expression of who Jesus was to me. I loved stewarding other\u2019s songs, but I knew I was not honoring the full gift He put inside of me.\u201d

\n

With the current release of \u201cFor All My Life,\u201d the lead single from her long-awaited self-titled solo debut album, God is continuing to provide TAYA with opportunities to share her talent with a worldwide audience.  You can catch Taya on the Singalong tour, with Matt Maher, Leeland, and Phil Wickham!  You'll hear stories behind some of her songs from her album, and hear how she got her start and so much more!
