Love Liberty Disco
Recorded Music
Overview
In addition to their dominating presence, Newsboys have developed one of the most powerful touring machines in the world. The band moved from sold out arenas on their Step Up To The Microphone tour, to their own portable inflatable air-dome on their Love Liberty Disco tour in 2000. Both tours generated unprecedented fan support and solidified Newsboys as one of the best live bands on the road. In 2001 they took the concept even further when they mounted the most successful tour of their career. With Festival Con Dios tour, Newsboys carried dozens of bands with them and garnered major press attention from outlets as diverse as USA Today, Teen People, ESPN2, Guitar Player, Motocross Journal and Entertainment Weekly. Newsweek’s cover feature “Jesus Rocks” (July 16, 2001) brought international attention to the groundbreaking tour and the growing popularity of Christian music in general. Festival Con Dios sold out many of its stops across the country and would eventually be declared the biggest tour of the year in the industry, as well as earning Newsboys and the supporting bands critical acclaim in newspapers and magazines from coast to coast. Yet despite their status as one of the biggest names in Christian music, their ninth studio album shows them just as hungry as they have ever been.In addition to their dominating presence, Newsboys have developed one of the most powerful touring machines in the world.

The next chapter in Newsboy’s recorded saga is now unfolding. They have already scored another hit with the album’s first single, “It Is You.” They are preparing to re-launch Festival Con Dios and to possibly add an additional arena tour. 2002 is shaping up to be an even bigger year for the band that just won’t quit. Inspired by the longevity of U2, Furler is excited about his own band’s legacy. “I probably love U2 more for their brotherhood than for their music. I appreciate how much you have to lose yourself to do what they’ve done. When I go in to write a song or to make a record I write it from the perspective of a fan. At some point I was a fan of the music. At some point I am a fan of my music.” With a record as impressive as Thrive under his belt it’s hard to blame him for being a fan. Considering the band’s constant rise in popularity, and the honor they have earned among other bands and industry insiders, he seems to be in good company.
