David Crowder Band Final Album 'Give Us Rest' At No.2 In Billboard Chart

Jan 18 2012

The final album from David Crowder Band, 'Give Us Rest', has entered the main Billboard 200 album chart at Number 2 today, 18th January 2012. The bumper 34 track double-CD album went straight to number 1 on the US iTunes Album Chart following its release last week, staying in the top spot for several days.

"At No. 2 this week is a debut from David Crowder Band with its 'Give Us Rest' selling a larger-than-expected 50,000 copies. It's the best chart rank and sales week for the Christian act", reported Billboard.

'Give Us Rest' becomes the second biggest selling album of the week in the US, only beaten by the unstoppable Adele with her album '21' selling 104,000 copies, which has now spent 16 weeks at Number 1 - the longest time any album has topped the charts since the 'Titanic' soundtrack in 1998 also spent 16 weeks atop the charts.

David Crowder Band performed their final show together earlier this month at the Passion 2012 Conference in Atlanta, following their announcement in May 2011 that they would be ending in early 2012 following the release of their final album. The popular American worship band's previous full-length studio release, 2009's 'Church Music', peaked at Number 11 on the Billboard chart, with 36,000 copies sold in its first week, and went on to receive a Grammy nomination.
