2010 has certainly been a momentous year for Newsboys. From their July CD release of Born Again to the major radio airplay with both the No. 1 hit "Born Again" and current radio single "Way Beyond Myself," to the consistent touring at venues and festivals, the band just hasn't stopped. Top that off with kicking off a remix contest, filming music videos and releasing their first-ever Christmas project, Christmas! A Newsboys Holiday, the year is not yet over for Newsboys.
Hitting the road the weekend after Thanksgiving, Newsboys will join Newsong to ring in the Christmas cheer across the U.S. on the "Very Merry Christmas Tour 2010." The 20-city nationwide tour will kick off in North Carolina and finish in Florida December 19th. Tour dates are listed below, yet be sure to visit Newsboys.com for the most updated information.
As they prepare for the upcoming Christmas tour, the band just filmed a music video for their song "Miracles" from the Born Again project. "Miracles" was filmed right outside of Nashville and will also include live concert footage. The video will be available as a free download with the 2011 release of Born Again: Miracles Edition, coming March 29th.
The band's current single, "Way Beyond Myself," climbing this week to No. 5 on the CHR charts, is also the song of choice for the Newsboys Remix Competition. As announced in October, the contest is to find the best remix of the single and the winning version will also appear on the Born Again: Miracles Edition. The winner will be chosen by a combination of fan votes and by Newsboys themselves. The competition is currently open and is available to fans of all ages and no production experience required. All submissions must be made by December 6th. A specific list of details is available on the official website, Newsboys.com/remix.
