Claire Leslie Signs With Capitol Capitol Christian Music Group

Singer-songwriter Claire Leslie has signed with Capitol Christian Music Group. In celebration of the signing, Leslie is releasing her debut single, “Original.”

Leslie has increased her following by 630% on her socials by teasing new songs and demos over the past two months. Her content strategy and unique sound have helped her audience grow, reaching over two million views on vertical content before her first major label debut.

“We couldn’t be more excited to have Claire be part of the Capitol CMG family,” shares Garrett Davis, A&R, Capitol Christian Music Group. “From the first time our team met Claire, we knew she was special and that we wanted to be a part of bringing her music to the world.  She’s infectious, caring, and a bright spot in an industry that needs it.  I can’t wait for people to hear what she has to say.”

“Capitol is my absolute dream label,” shares Leslie. “I have to pinch myself daily, like, ‘Is this real life?’ It still doesn’t feel quite real. The entire team at Capitol is incredibly supportive and feels like my second family. What excites me the most is that they share my vision and are enthusiastic about experimenting with me to bring a fresh creative perspective to this industry.”

“I think more than ever, it’s easy to feel pressure to conform to what society says and fit into a box,” she continues. “At 22 years old, this is something I find that I’m reminding myself of daily—I have to consciously decide to be confident in my skin before stepping out the door. Understanding the person that God made me to be and finding security in that has been crucial. But there is a beauty in embracing our uniqueness and staying true to ourselves.”
