Career

Raine made her debut with Maverick City Music in 2019, releasing two projects that year. As of September 2022, they had released an additional 11 projects. [4] As a member of Maverick City Music, Raine was a part of the "Welcome to Maverick City," "Kingdom," "The Maverick Way," and "Good News" tours in the United States.

In Spring 2023, Raine embarked on the "It's Time" tour, along with Tasha Cobbs Leonard, Natalie Grant, and TAYA. [6] The tour spanned over 20 cities across the United States, and Raine and her fellow, female worship leaders were later joined by Tamela Mann and Katie Torwalt on the tour.

On June 2, 2023, Raine released her debut live album "Cover The Earth (Live In New York)" which features Natalie Grant, Todd Dulaney, Chandler Moore, and Lizzie Morgan. [7] Produced by Adale Jackson, "Cover The Earth" consists of 14 songs, including "One Name (Jesus)," the album's lead single.

On October 6, 2025, Raine announced that she was no longer a part of Maverick City Music. [3] She said the following about her departure from the worship music collective: "Being a part of Mav truly changed my life! What started as a group of folks singing in a shed has turned into something I could’ve never even imagined!... Every song I was a part of was written and sung from a pure place, just me wanting to please God. And now I believe God has given me the green light to step into what He’s calling me to do individually. Still writing. Still singing. Still worshipping and leading others in worship – just on my own." [9]
