7 Things to Know About FOR KING + COUNTRY's New Album

Multi-GRAMMY® winning duorecording artist FOR KING + COUNTRY will releasing their brand new Curb Records' album What Are We Waiting For? on March 11.  Here are 7 things to know about the new record.

1. The new album is available for pre-order along with new song release "Unsung Hero," on January 7.  Pre-add, pre-order or pre-save the album here.

2. The collection features cameos from tour mate Dante Bowe, Kirk Franklin and Tori Kelly and includes barrier-breaking single "RELATE," awe-inspiring "For God Is With Us" and unifying No. 1 hit "TOGETHER."

3. The next song release, "Unsung Hero" is the most personal track on the upcoming album and is lovingly dedicated to the parents of FOR KING + COUNTRY's Joel and Luke Smallbone. Two of seven siblings, the brothers raise their voices in reverent solidarity for the couple who made them the men they are today.  Ethereal strings invite listeners into the real-life story of the Smallbone family and its journey from Australia to America on the cut written by the duo, Federico Vindver and Seth Mosley, as they recall the sacrifices made and the example set by their mom and dad. The "Unsung Hero" music video will also premiere January 7 at 10AM CT on YouTube.

"Mum and Dad's sacrificial love and selflessness inspires us to this day," continue the Smallbone brothers. "It's hard to put into words what they mean to us, but they are both truly unsung heroes of ours. "Unsung Hero" goes out to every mum and dad, as well as every child who sees a hero in their parents."

4. "What Are We Waiting For? - The Tour" will also launch this spring. The 34-city run will take FOR KING + COUNTRY to arenas across the United States, performing brand new songs from its upcoming album for the first time, against the backdrop of an all-new stage design.

The new tour kicks off on March 31 in Southaven, MS traveling through Chicago, IL, Phoenix, AZ, Las Vegas, NV, and more before wrapping up in Franklin, TN on May 22. Joining FOR KING + COUNTRY on tour will be platinum selling artist Dante Bowe of Maverick City.
