for KING & COUNTRY is taking their soaring melodies, driving rhythms, theatrical instrumentation and personal themes found in their 5-star-acclaimed, bestselling sophomore album, RUN WILD. LIVE FREE. LOVE STRONG., into every venue on the "YOU MATTER-THE TOUR." With no opening band, the duo is playing songs like their current multi-week, multi-genre No. 1 hit single, "Fix My Eyes," and "To The Dreamers," "It's Not Over Yet," "Without You (feat. Courtney)" and more from the new album, which released Sept. 16 from Word Entertainment and debuted at No. 13 on the Billboard Top 200 retail chart. The duo is also leading hits like "The Proof of Your Love" from Crave, the highest-selling debut from a new artist when it released in 2012, as concert-goers document their experiences at these events at http://www.crowdalbum.com/page/forkingandcountry.

"We are blown away by the unprecedented momentum that for KING & COUNTRY has achieved in the last 30 days," says Rod Riley, President & CEO, Word Entertainment. "Their sophomore album debuting in the top 15 on Billboard's top 200, securing a multi-format No. 1 radio single, closing the Dove Awards and now selling out their tour all prove that they are a headliner in every definition of the word. This is a special moment with a special group and we are honored to be a part of it."

In addition to their own "YOU MATTER-THE TOUR" sponsored by Compassion International, for KING & COUNTRY further performed "Fix My Eyes" and "To The Dreamers" as part of a medley to close the 45th Annual GMA Dove Awards, which debuted on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) Oct. 12. "To The Dreamers" has become widely known as the song featured in the nationwide "The Shows That Touch You" NBC campaign to promote the network's fall lineup.

Songs like "To The Dreamers," "Run Wild (feat Andy Mineo)" and "It's Not Over Yet" from RUN WILD. LIVE FREE. LOVE STRONG. have also garnered major placements on The Emmy's, the Today Show, Sunday Night Football, 7Up commercials, U.S. Open Finals, Spotify's Viral50 and more.

The new hits have been cultivated from a long, at times painful, but ultimately enriching journey that led to the recording of RUN WILD. LIVE FREE. LOVE STRONG. That journey is chronicled in a video featured at http://smarturl.it/fkcepk, as well as highlighted in the first concept music video from the album, "Without You (feat. Courtney)."
