This GRAMMY®-nominated and Dove Award-winning band has sold close to 8 million units, has garnered five Gold albums and 28 No. 1 radio hits.  With the 2010 release of Born Again, its first week out was the largest street week of their careers!  They sold an astounding 45,311 units and hitting No. 4 on Billboard‘s overall chart, charting above new releases from such artists as Justin Bieber, Sting and M.I.A. Its self-titled single topped the charts for 8 weeks, gaining close to eight million impressions to date.  The CD also garnered three No. 1 hits. Newsboys released their most recent CD release on November 15, 2011-the highly anticipated project, God’s Not Dead.  This rock-driven worship album finds front man Michael Tait and his band mates who’ve played together for two decades – Jeff Frankenstein (keys), Duncan Phillips (drums), and Jody Davis (guitar) –with some of today’s most widely church-embraced modern worship anthems as well as several original and never-before-released worship songs written by some of today’s biggest worship songwriters.  It’s title song, “God’s Not Dead,” topped CHR’s charts for seven weeks in a row.  Renown for their heart-pumping live concerts, the tight knit Newsboys unit continues to headline gigs in the U.S. and around the world.  Just last year they captured the headlining slot on the world’s biggest tour, the Winter Jam Tour, playing to more than half a million people.
