After 18 years at Relevant Radio Nancy Jensen has exited. Nancy says, “I’ve chosen to retire as of December 31, 2021. It has been a wonderful experience interacting with everyone – listeners, donors and colleagues.”
Multi-GRAMMY® winning duo and Curb | Word Entertainment recording artist FOR KING + COUNTRY will launch the pre-order of its upcoming new album What Are We Waiting For? (March 11), along with new song release “Unsung Hero,” January 7. Pre-add, pre-order or pre-save the album here.
FOR KING + COUNTRY’s fourth studio project asks a pivotal question in a pandemic-riddled world. Brothers Joel and Luke Smallbone provide the answer across 13 original tracks that confront relevant issues and confirm the duo’s commitment to community, diversity and family. Set against a sonic backdrop painted by the Platinum-selling group’s lush, vivid pop, 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.”
“What’s been particularly beautiful about this album is that we were able to be home with our families while making it,” share Luke and Joel Smallbone. “We cannot wait to now take more new songs on the road, to see you out there and make new memories with you all!”
