Origin

Taylor, Madison and Logan Cain grew up in Alabama, where their dad was a pastor. They were home schooled until high school.[1] Their musical career got an early start when at just four years old, Taylor wrote her first song, a Christmas song which also included Madison and Logan on vocal harmonies. Together, the siblings all attended Troy University in Alabama. [2] In 2012, the trio entered a contest to open for singer-songwriter Dave Barnes. After winning the contest, they quit their jobs and eventually moved to Nashville.[3]

Career

Cain would sign with Provident Label Group and release their first EP for the label in early 2020. In a short time it notched more than 2.5 million streams and landed a single on the Christian radio charts.[4] The single “Rise Up (Lazarus)” became a top 10 hit, eventually reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Airplay Chart;[5] the track spent four weeks topping the Billboard Audience based radio chart.[6] The group also recorded a version of “Rise Up (Lazarus)” with Zach Williams.[7]

Cain were nominated for the We Love Christian Music Awards’ Best New Artist of the Year in 2021 and were nominated for and won the K-Love 2021 Fan Award for Breakout Single for their song "Rise Up (Lazarus)".[8]
