Nashville, TN – October 16, 2026 – Rising singer-songwriter Anne Elise continues building early momentum with her second single, “In-Between,” now available through NCS Records in partnership with NRT Music. The uplifting country-pop track invites listeners to slow down, embrace the present, and discover the beauty in life’s everyday moments.
Blending heartfelt storytelling with an infectious melody, “In-Between” captures the tension between life’s constant movement and the desire to appreciate the moments that often pass unnoticed. With warm acoustic textures and an encouraging message, the song offers a refreshing perspective on patience, contentment, and finding joy in the journey.
Produced by Ryan Wilson, “In-Between” features acoustic guitar and banjo from Devin Malone, longtime guitarist for country music superstars Rascal Flatts. The instrumentation brings an organic, folksy energy to the track and complements Anne Elise’s expressive vocals and natural storytelling style. Anne Elise co-wrote the song with Darthy McCormick, Bryson Breakey, and Gabriella Stone.
Inspired by the realization that life doesn’t always need to be rushed or overcomplicated, “In-Between” explores the importance of being present through seasons of uncertainty, transition, and waiting. Its relatable lyrics acknowledge the pressure to keep moving forward while celebrating the unexpected beauty of slowing down.
The release follows Anne Elise’s debut single, “Changing,” and further establishes her emerging musical identity, drawing from country, folk, jazz, and pop influences while remaining rooted in her Christian faith. Currently studying at Belmont University in Nashville, the young artist continues to develop her voice as both a songwriter and performer, crafting music that connects personal experiences with messages of hope and encouragement.
Anne Elise first gained recognition as a member of Decatur, Alabama’s acclaimed Ezra Worship Initiative, where she developed her passion for music and ministry. Her growing artistry caught the attention of John Chisum, founder and president of Nashville Christian Songwriters, leading to an exclusive recording agreement with the organization’s label imprint, NCS Records.
Through its partnership with NRT Music, NCS Records continues to support Anne Elise’s emerging career and introduce her music to new audiences across Christian and mainstream country-pop listening spaces.
With its bright acoustic production and universal message, “In-Between” showcases Anne Elise’s ability to bring a fresh, youthful perspective to familiar life experiences. The single connects with listeners navigating new beginnings, changing seasons, and the everyday challenge of learning to appreciate where they are rather than constantly looking ahead.
“In-Between” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and all major digital streaming platforms.
