Acclaimed Christian artist Scott Riggan returns with his deeply moving new single "Song of Peace," out now. The track serves as the latest preview of his highly anticipated full-length album Shepherds and Wolves, set to release August 28, and continues to unveil a project rooted in spiritual resilience, hard-won faith, and the tension between struggle and hope.
"Song of Peace" was born out of a season of deep upheaval and restoration. Arriving in an uncharacteristically quick burst of inspiration, the song reflects a faith that was tested and ultimately strengthened in the wake of a life-altering collapse. Drawing from the biblical promise of "the peace that passes understanding" found in Philippians 4, the track captures a profound truth: peace is not dependent on circumstances, but anchored in trust.
"Song of Peace" explores the paradox of experiencing calm in the midst of chaos. With honest lyricism and a cinematic yet intimate sound, Riggan gives voice to a faith that has been tested and proven. The song's central message--"joy unexplainable, deep abiding peace"--moves beyond theology into lived experience, offering a resonant anthem for anyone walking through seasons of uncertainty, grief, or transformation.
The release also continues to build momentum toward Shepherds and Wolves, a bold new album that marks one of the most intentional chapters of Riggan's career. Through a series of singles leading up to the August 28 release, listeners are being invited into a larger narrative exploring discernment, calling, and the tension between comfort and conviction. Each track contributes to a cohesive journey--one that meets listeners in the wilderness and points them toward restoration.
Recently signing with NRT Music, Riggan enters this new season with expanded partnership and reach. His career already spans four continents and includes a #1 hit on Christian radio, multiple Top 20 songs, and recognition from both the Dove Awards and the John Lennon Songwriting Contest. Yet at the core of his artistry remains a commitment to authenticity--writing songs that are wrestled through in real life and grounded in faith.
In addition to his work as a recording artist, Riggan serves as a worship pastor in Idaho, where his music continues to resonate with a growing community of listeners known as the Rigganators. These fans have become an integral part of his journey, connecting deeply with his message of perseverance, honesty, and hope.
