About Newworldson
Newworldson rocketed to international fame upon release of its label debut Salvation Station (2008), which reached No. 26 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and earned the band a guest spot on newsboys' 2007-2008 "GO" tour. Further recognition followed in 2010 with the success of its first hit single "There Is A Way," peaking at No. 2 on Christian AC radio and topping Christian radio charts in Canada, the UK and Australia.
Last year Newworldson released its fourth album, Rebel Transmission, to a Top 10 debut on iTunes' Christian & Gospel Top Albums chart in both the U.S. and Canada. The project turned out another Top 3 single with "Learning to be the Light" and received critical acclaim for "its willingness to take its music down musical avenues not commonly traveled by artists of faith" (crosswalk.com). Fans celebrated the album for its effortless fusion of pop, roots, and Motown era horn arrangements by the Chops Horns (Alicia Keys, The Police, The Rolling Stones).
The band has garnered four JUNO Award nominations for Gospel Album of the Year and 11 GMA Canada Covenant Awards. For more information on Newworldson, visit: www.newworldson.com.
