I’M SO BLESSED DEBUTED AS THE NO. 2 BOOK IN ALL CHRISTIAN BOOKS
NASHVILLE, TN (JUNE 26, 2024) – CAIN’s music has been a mainstay since their debut album in early 2020, and now they add authors to their names with the announcement of the lyrical picture book I’m So Blessed (B&H Publishing).
Based on their hit song, this book is filled with bright and playful illustrations of the three characters Tay-Tay Tangerine, LoLo Lemon, and Maddie Melon as they go through their day singing their favorite truth: “I’m So Blessed.” At the start of the pre-order campaign, the book debuted as the No.1 book in Christian Kids’ books and the No. 2 book in All Christian books in addition to being No. 24 in all Kids’ books and in the Top 100 of all books on Amazon.
“We were so grateful for how much our fans have resonated with our song that we wanted to turn it into something you can hold in your hands and share with the kids in your lives,” shares CAIN on the book’s inspiration. “We first wrote this song back in 2020 when there didn’t seem to be a lot of things to be thankful for. The world was shutting down and seemingly our music career was too. But, even in that tough time, we wanted to proclaim that the truth about God is that He will bless His children in every situation: good and bad.”
Throughout this story, each fruit friend encounters a hard day. In each circumstance, they are reminded that even in frustration and embarrassment, God loves them. It’s not because we have a good day that God’s children are blessed––it’s because He loves His kids every day! This adorable book teaches kids that while it’s okay to be sad when plans are ruined, friends let them down, and embarrassment strikes, God is with His children in every circumstance. If kids have breath in their lungs, they can find joy in God’s blessings and praise Him by singing the fruits’ favorite truth: “I’m so blessed!”
Cain adds, “Our hope is that this book reaches kids everywhere––kids who’ve heard the song and kids who haven’t––with the message that God’s love is good no matter the kind of day they’re having.”

ABOUT CAIN: CAIN’s music quickly became a mainstay on radio since their debut single, the RIAA Gold® certified “Rise Up (Lazarus),” which was released in early 2020. Raised in Hartselle, Alabama as pastor’s kids and now residing in Nashville, CAIN – Madison Cain Johnson, Taylor Cain Matz, and Logan Cain – got their first break opening for Dave Barnes and Andrew Ripp at a show in 2012. Now more than a decade later, they’ve headlined their tour, as well as touring with Chris Tomlin, Zach Williams, Casting Crowns, TobyMac, the K-LOVE Christmas Tour, and performed on the Grand Ole Opry stage. The group also hosted the 2023 K-LOVE Fan Awards.
They’ve hit No. 1 back-to-back on the radio with their first two singles, “Rise Up (Lazarus)” and “Yes He Can,” both songs from their first full-length album Rise Up. Additionally, their viral single “I’m So Blessed” took over the streaming front, amassing more than 1M streams each week in 2023. Because of its social media popularity, more than 200,000 people have created videos using the music of “I’m So Blessed,” accounting for 300M additional views on social media. To date, they’ve won a K-LOVE Fan Award for Top Breakout Single “Rise Up (Lazarus)” and were nominated for an American Music Award (AMA). CAIN also received multiple nods for the GMA Dove Awards in 2022 for Best New Artist, Pop/Contemporary Album, Best Recorded Music Packaging for Rise Up, and Christmas/Special Event Album for Wonderful.
Their latest project, Jesus Music, was just released in October 2023. On the heels of the album’s release, CAIN debuted their original series “Chasing CAIN” in November exclusively through the TBN app. The limited series shared never-before-seen footage of the group, their rise to where they are today, and how they keep faith and family at the forefront of everything they do. Pouring their joy into their music, CAIN has discovered what it’s like to live their calling while doing their favorite thing – singing about Jesus. CAINTheBand.com
