Newsboys in a Canadian Sandwich!

Rocking its way up the BILLBOARD Top 200 Albums, Newsboys have shown again that they're BORN AGAIN!
 
With their first album featuring Michael Tait as lead singer, Newsboys BORN AGAIN matches the top Christian Album of the year debuting in the #4 spot on Billboard.
This is a monumental achievement for the band as this is their highest debut in history, at a time when some questioned the band's future.
Boasting 43,000+ album sales since their July 13th release date, Newsboys show the world that they're definitely around for the long hall.
 
"We're honored, pleased and humbled" shares Tait from the Mexican Baja where the band and fans are currently building houses for the homeless.
You can never underestimate the heart of these guys, where others would be doing press conferences and press releases with their massive success, these guys are doing what Jesus called them to do, by building houses for the poor, widows and orphans.  If you don't have the album yet - quit reading this blog and go buy it on iTunes!  There's an extended preview available on their official FACEBOOK page, which has more new music than their Myspace (interesting...)
 
On the chart this week the Newsboys are flanked by two Canadian artists who's sounds are traveling the world right now and are both on tour:
#3 - DRAKE (Toronto, ON) 
#5 - JUSTIN BEIBER (Stratford, ON)
 
As the Newsboys take a festival break to do missions work in Mexico, their gearing up for their closest show to the Canadian border of the summer as they prepare to visit KINGDOM BOUND on August 1st.  Here's a pic of their new show... just in case you thought you'd seen the Newsboys lately!
