NASHVILLE, TN (February 24, 2026) – Les Traylor has released his powerful new single “Walk Through the Fire” to Christian radio, delivering a bold Southern Rock declaration of unwavering faith in the face of cultural pressure, persecution, and fear. Rooted in Scripture and lived experience, the song confronts the moment every believer faces when conviction is tested and compromise is offered.
Written by Traylor and produced by Mitch Dane, “Walk Through the Fire” draws directly from the biblical account of Daniel 3, echoing the courage of those who refused to bow even when the cost was their lives. With muscular guitars, driving rhythms, and a chorus that refuses retreat, Traylor sings from the posture of absolute trust. He declares his willingness to walk straight into the flames without fear, confident that God remains present and victorious even in the most dire circumstances. The imagery of fire, ashes, and rebirth underscores a central truth of the song: what the world intends for destruction, God uses for purification and new life.
Lines like “I will walk through the fire, I will not fear the flames” and “there was always someone else in the fire to help me to the other side” frame the song not as a plea for escape, but as a testimony of deliverance. It is a defiant reminder that faith is not proven in comfort, but in endurance. As the smoke clears, the song points listeners toward resurrection, renewal, and the unmistakable hand of God at work.
Les Traylor brings uncommon authenticity to this message. An independent singer-songwriter based in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, Traylor blends Christian, Country, and Southern Rock into music shaped by conviction, discipline, and real-world struggle. A retired U.S. Army Special Forces combat veteran and lifelong musician, his background informs both the gravity and resolve found in his songwriting. His music often addresses redemption, restoration, family, and the hidden battles faced by veterans, including PTSD and suicide, with honesty and hope.
Performing since the age of seven in church and school settings, Traylor later pursued formal musical training, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Music Performance and a Master of Arts. He also served as a member of the “Commandant’s Own,” U.S. Marine Corps Drum & Bugle Corps, an experience that sharpened his musicianship and sense of purpose. His catalog includes Rock of Ages, Baton Rouge, Gold Star Town, Walk Through the Fire, and the upcoming Right Here. Along the way, Baton Rouge reached #40 on the GlacierFM Country Music Chart, and Gold Star Town received an honorable mention at the 2023 Mid-Atlantic Songwriter’s Contest.
With influences ranging from Chris Stapleton and Kenny Rogers to Mac Powell and 3 Dog Night, Les Traylor continues to carve out a lane where conviction meets storytelling and faith stands unfiltered. “Walk Through the Fire” is not only a song, but a statement. It challenges listeners to stand firm, trust fully, and let the world witness God’s victory over darkness.
