GRAMMY® nominated, Dove Award-winning Building 429 and the largest producer of live Christian events, Premier Productions, create an exclusive partnership for the 20-city Fear No More Tour this fall. The tour, named for Building 429’s current hit single of the same name, will feature special guest Britt Nicole and be sponsored by World Vision.

“Premier Productions is a longtime friend of the band, and we’ve always admired their dedication to supporting artists through touring and events,” says Gabriel Vasquez, Vasquez Entertainment owner and president and 3rd Wave Music partner. “We couldn’t be happier to exclusively partner with Premier for our fall tour.”

“Premier is humbled and excited to partner with Building 429 on the Fear No More Tour,” adds Michael Pugh, CEO, Premier Productions. “With a deep history of songs that have impacted people all over the world, we believe that Fear No More is just the beginning with how God will continue using this band for a massive Kingdom impact."

The Fear No More Tour fall dates will be announced soon as the band, one of Christian music’s top artists, launches into this summer season, performing at 25 major festivals, fairs, parks and more across the US, including Kings Fest (6/22), Elevate 2019 (6/23) and OneFest (7/27). The summer tour follows the bands’ headline “Live The Journey Tour” that boasted multiple back-to-back sold out concerts. All the latest tour dates can be found at www.building429.com/tour.

For Building 429 members Jason Roy (vocals), Michael Anderson (drums), Jesse Garcia (guitar), Aaron Branch (bass) and Steven Stewart (keyboards), anthemic battle cries about living an unshakable faith have been the catalyst to multiple hit singles and playing for millions of fans in sold-out venues internationally.

Playing its RIAA Gold-selling “Where I Belong” and No. 1 songs like “We Won't Be Shaken,” “Listen To The Sound” and “Glory Defined,” Building 429 will also perform “Fear No More” while on tour. Initially premiered by Billboard and becoming one of the biggest independent artist singles to ever hit Christian radio, the song continues to gain momentum. “Fear No More” has been heard by millions as it hits top 20 this week on multiple radio charts, including: No. 18 National Christian Audience, No. 20 Hot AC/CHR, No. 19 AC Monitored and No. 12 AC Indicator.

With networks like K-LOVE and stations such as KLTY and KCBI (Dallas), KTIS (Minneapolis), SOS (Las Vegas), “The Fish” (Portland), WAWZ (New York City), WBSN (New Orleans), WBVM (Tampa), WPAR (Lynchburg, VA), WCSG and WJQK (Grand Rapids), WECC (Brunswick, GA), WORQ (Green Bay), WPER (Fredericksburg-Richmond, VA), WSCF (Ft. Pierce, FL), KVNE (Tyler, TX ), WCLQ (Wausau, WI), KHPE (Eugene, OR) and more joining the ever-growing list of outlets playing the single, “Fear No More” is meant to encourage listeners to hold fast to faith amid life’s inevitable setbacks.

“I wrote ‘Fear No More’ following a year of fear, feeling like I was under siege,” confesses Building 429 frontman Jason Roy. “It was a tough, tough year. We had health scares, we had bus wrecks; you couldn’t write a script for a year that was more brutal than 2018. I just felt like I needed to sit down and kind of acknowledge that this place I was in the middle of is not what I would ever choose, and yet at the same time, God somehow used it. While 2018 was a year of fear for me, I’m declaring 2019 is the year of fear no more!”

This isn’t what I’d choose

But it’s where I’m finding you

When I’m broken and undone

Your mercy’s just begun

You overcome my doubt

Your hands are reaching out

You hold me through the storm

And I will fear no more

(From the chorus of “Fear No More”)

Building 429’s “Fear No More” is the first release from the band’s 3rd Wave Music with The Fuel Music distribution and is available now at digital retailers and streaming outlets globally from https://the-fuel-music.lnk.to/fearnomore.
