Louder Than The Music

Newsboys will release their brand new studio album 'Restart', this week (10th September 2013), the third studio album since former DC Talk member Michael Tait took over as lead singer.

The eleven-song album includes first radio single 'Live With Abandon', title track 'Restart', and the inspirational opening anthem 'That's How You Change The World'.

A Deluxe Edition of the album is also available, featuring five bonus tracks, including a cover of the classic Mike & The Mechanics pop ballad 'The Living Years' which topped charts around the world in the late 1980s. Special guest vocalist Kevin Max, Tait's former band-mate, joins Newsboys on two of the bonus tracks, 'The Living Years' and 'Man On Fire'.

'Restart' follows recent Newsboys albums 'Born Again' (2010) and 'God's Not Dead' (2011) which have collectively sold over 650,000 copies with five No.1 singles on the radio charts.

"At the start of this record two years ago, we knew we'd be taking great risks, but people will be excited about this album because we've pushed the music and taken it further than we've ever taken it before," says front man Michael Tait. "I have not felt this way about anything I've been involved in musically since Jesus Freak."

Later this month Newsboys will begin their highly anticipated Restart Tour. Hitting 20+ dates across the US, this four-time Grammy-nominated and chart-topping group will kick off their anticipated tour on 20th September, running through until 27th October, with special guests including For King & Country and Rapture Ruckus.
