Country star on the rise Becca Bowen is letting her heart do the talking with her brand-new single “Mama’s Prayer,” and Celeb Secrets Country has your exclusive first listen before it drops everywhere tomorrow, September 19.
Co-written with GRAMMY-nominated hitmaker Sal Oliveri (who has penned songs for Chris Stapleton, Tim McGraw, and Kenny Chesney), the track is Bowen’s most vulnerable release yet. Told through the lens of a mother’s unconditional love and unwavering belief in her child, “Mama’s Prayer” pulls from Becca’s own life and the strength of her mom’s steady support.
“’Mama’s Prayer’ is my favorite song that I have released so far. The meaning of the song is powerful and I think many people will be able to relate to the song,” Becca shares with Celeb Secrets Country exclusively. “Personally, I have had some low points in my life where I just wanted to run away from it all, but my mom was always there for me. She kept me surrounded in Prayer. The song ‘Mama’s Prayer’ reflects God’s love through the story of a mom and her daughter.”
That emotional honesty shines through in every lyric and note, channeling the timeless country soul of 90s legends like Faith Hill and Martina McBride — with a modern grit that’s all Becca’s own. It’s heartfelt, raw, and deeply relatable, destined to resonate with anyone who’s leaned on a mama’s love to pull them through.
This release is just the latest in Bowen’s whirlwind career. After breaking out with her 2022 debut album Like You’ve Never Been Loved — featuring collabs with country stars like Lee Brice and Rachel Bradshaw — she followed up with her 2024 EP County Line, which delivered fan-favorite tracks like “If I’m Being Honest” and “Son of a Gun.” With performances at Whiskey Jam, Bridgestone Arena, and nationwide headlining shows (not to mention her big win on Outdoor Channel’s For Love or For Likes), Bowen is quickly becoming one of country music’s most fearless voices.
And if “Mama’s Prayer” proves anything, it’s that Becca isn’t slowing down anytime soon — she’s only getting bolder, brighter, and more unapologetically herself.
