Collective Worth

Collective Worth, the worship vision of veteran major-label drummer and songwriter James Billington, has released its debut single, “El Shaddai (I See You In Everything)” featuring gifted vocalist Laura Cashman, to Christian radio. With a sound inspired by modern worship movements like Hillsong UNITED and Elevation Worship, Collective Worth delivers a fresh, anthemic praise experience rooted in both reverence and intimacy. The voice of "El Shaddai" belongs to Laura Cashman, a vocalist whose style draws inspiration from — and has been compared to — Stevie Nicks, Natalie Merchant, Kelly Clarkson, and Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland. Her tone is rich and textured, with a unique ability to deliver both the intimacy of a quiet confession and the power of a stadium-filling chorus. “I knew the track was strong, but not this strong,” James recalls. “Laura’s delivery was flawless — she captured the heart of the song from the very first take, as if she’d been singing it her whole life. I just knew people needed to hear this.” Currently in the studio finishing up tracks for our upcoming album. Stay tuned!
