I met Bear Bailey about 2 years ago when he was kind enough to join Unscripted in the midst of going tiktok viral. Since that interview, Bear has lived the life. He has been with the top Country Artists in Nashville. He has released multiple singles including his new song - Better Now.

There is more to Bear Bailey than tiktok videos. He is a man like many of us. He has been through a lot in the past 2 years. Today he joins unscripted to tell his story now.

So excited to have returning guest Kate Stanford back again to discuss the launch of her new single "Stand On Your Promises." The new single is now available on all platforms. Below is the official press release and all available links.

Nashville, TN — April 18, 2024. Kate Stanford, an emerging powerhouse in Christian music, is thrilled to announce the release of her latest single, "Stand on Your Promises." Produced by Sam Hart, known for his exceptional work with artists such as Big Daddy Weave, Meredith Andrews, Unspoken, and Sanctus Real, “Stand on Your Promises” is available tomorrow, April 19, on all major streaming platforms.

"Stand on Your Promises is an anthem of hope,” explains Stanford. “What originally inspired this song was my struggle with both physical and emotional pain. I have dealt with chronic migraines for the past year and could not get out of bed. This led me to be depressed and hopeless. But even in my darkest times, Jesus met me every step of the way. He answered my prayers and brought me out of the darkness. He gave me joy and hope and provided me with community here in Nashville. I want listeners to know that whatever they may be going through, it will get better. Stand on His promises and He will make a way for you.”

Following Stanford's 2023 release, "Your Heart," which was produced by two-time GRAMMY nominee Cindy Morgan, comes the latest single. Kate’s unmistakable vocals and Sam Hart's unparalleled production expertise make "Stand on Your Promises" a must-listen for fans of uplifting and inspiring music.

A native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Stanford’s musical journey began at a young age, singing as both a classically trained singer and a contemporary artist. Since 2019, she has released a series of acclaimed singles that have quickly found an audience on radio, streaming platforms, and social media.

This is one of the coolest episodes I have ever done. Episode 284 is with Kira Takei. Kira's mom and I were best friends in High School and remain friends to this day. Kira is an incredibly talented singer, songwriter and accomplished dancer. Her family experiences growing up have given her a wide range of creativity. She was kind enough to join me today to talk about her experiences and also allowed me to share one of my favorite songs of hers.

*The theme song is Film of Us by artist Kira Takei, written and performed by Kira Takei and her producer Kevin McNoldy. You can find her on Spotify under Kira Takei, spelled T-A-K-E-I, or her website kiratakei.com

This is it. We have reached the final day of Grace Week. Today is Good Friday. Today we reflect on the sacrifice that allowed up to no longer live with shame. Today we finish our series and share some contact information. If you need want to reach out to me, email me at aaron@aaronconrad.com. I would be happy to hear from you and want to pray for you. Thank you once again to Pete Wilson, Miss K and Tori and Shauna for being a part of this again this year. Thank you all for listening.

Welcome to day four of Grace Week. We're almost to Good Friday. Before we get there, we need to pause and talk about the Community of the Withered Hand. By now you might have considered standing up and showing your hand. If you have, let me be the first to welcome you here. I hope you receive that like a warm hug. I hope that someday we can have a community where we are not ashamed but rather welcomed to share our struggles. This is day four of Grace Week.
