Newsboys (sometimes stylised as newsboys) is a Christian rock band that has existed in various permutations since its founding in 1985 in Mooloolaba, Queensland, Australia, by Peter Furler and George Perdikis. Now based in Nashville, Tennessee, in the United States, the band has released 17 studio albums, six of which have been certified gold. As of 2025, the band consists of guitarist Jody Davis, keyboardist Jeff Frankenstein, drummer Duncan Phillips, and lead vocalist, bassist, and guitarist Adam Agee (formerly of Stellar Kart and Audio Adrenaline); no founding members remain in the lineup. In addition to performing music, the band has appeared in the films God's Not Dead, God's Not Dead 2, and God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness.

History

1980s

The band was formed in Mooloolaba, Queensland, Australia in 1985<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> by two young men: Peter Furler and his school mate George Perdikis.<ref name="patheos-atheist">Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Furler and Perdikis practiced in a garage on the Sunshine Coast, well known for being a "surfer's paradise". Two other teens were added soon after: Furler's best friend, John James, and bassist Sean Taylor. Newsboys came to the United States in late 1987 after getting signed with Refuge Communications and released the album Read All About It in 1988 in the United States.

1990s

After signing with Star Song Communications, they released two more albums in 1990 and 1991: Hell Is for Wimps and Boys Will Be Boyz, with its first self-titled video. None of the band's first three albums received that much attention and the band's line-up changed with every release. It wasn't until their 1992 album, Not Ashamed (containing a cover of the DeGarmo & Key song "Boycott Hell"), that the band gained notice in the Christian music scene with its second self-titled video that followed a year later. Steve Taylor, a singer-songwriter and producer, began a partnership with the band, producing the band's record and writing most of the lyrics for their songs. Furler remained the band's primary songwriter and beginning with this album began sharing lead vocal duties with James and continued to do so until James' departure.

In 1994 amidst continued lineup changes (which included the addition of mainstays Jody Davis and Duncan Phillips), the band released Going Public, their fifth album and first real success. The record proved to be a watershed for the group, winning a 1995 Dove Award for "Rock Album of the Year".<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> It also produced four No. 1 hits: "Spirit Thing", "Real Good Thing", "Truth and Consequences", and, most notably, "Shine". "Shine" won the 1995 Dove for "Rock Recorded Song of the Year", and in 2006, CCM Magazine listed "Shine" in the top 10 in its ranking of the 100 Greatest Songs in Christian music. Shine is considered by fans to be the band's signature song.

The 1996 follow-up album Take Me to Your Leader was recorded with an expanded line up with new additions bassist Phil Joel and keyboardist Jeff Frankenstein. The album produced three more pop No. 1 hits: "Reality", "Let It Go", and the title track, two rock No. 1 hits: "Cup O' Tea" and "Breathe", as well as fan favourite and concert staple "Breakfast". This album also won the group's third Dove, this time for "Recorded Music Packaging of the Year".<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> This album spawned the Newsboys' first movie, Down Under the Big Top (1996), which was based on the song "Reality".

In late 1997 just after completing the Take Me To Your Leader Tour, lead singer John James announced he would be leaving the band to start a preaching ministry. In 2007 he told UK Christian magazine Cross Rhythms that he had actually been pushed out due to a drug and alcohol addiction. James recalled that at one point, he was drinking at least one carton of alcohol per day, and sometimes took the stage while under the influence. James said that other members likely saw he was spiraling long before he confided in Furler while recording the vocals for Step Up to the Microphone.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

With his departure, Furler moved from drums to vocals and auditions were held for the now-vacant drum position. Eventually, Duncan Phillips, who had previously played keyboards and percussion for the band moved over to the drum kit. From 1998 to 2003, the band's line-up of Furler, bassist Phil Joel, guitarist Jody Davis, keyboardist Jeff Frankenstein and Phillips stayed constant and in 1997 Newsboys hit the studio to record Step Up to the Microphone. The first post-James record, Step Up to the Microphone, sold well and produced four No. 1 hits: "Entertaining Angels", "WooHoo", "Believe", and the title track. It also spawned the Newsboys' live video, "Live One Night In Pennsylvania" and a year later. "Entertaining Angels" won the 1999 Dove for "Short Form Music Video of the Year".<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

The band returned in 1999 with Love Liberty Disco, the band's only album to significantly deviate from their pop rock sound. Instead, this particular album featured more of a disco sound. Still, it produced several hits, including the No. 1 hits "Beautiful Sound" and "Good Stuff" as well as the title track. The LLD tour was significantly more popular than the album. This tour featured an inflatable arena, called the Air Dome.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

In 1999, Furler co-founded Inpop Records with Wes Campbell as an independent contemporary Christian music record label.

2000s

In 2000, Newsboys headlined the annual, travelling CCM concert, Festival Con Dios, with Audio Adrenaline and The O.C. Supertones. That same year, Newsboys released a greatest hits compilation, Shine: The Hits, which did not include any songs from the Love Liberty Disco album, but included four new songs, two of which ("Joy" and "Who?") went to No. 1. After this album the band did not release any new material until the 2002 release of Thrive, a record that produced two No. 1 singles: "Million Pieces (Kissin' Your Cares Goodbye)" and the praise and worship-driven "It Is You", which proved to be the biggest hit of their career up to that point also with its video, Thrive: From The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. Also in 2002, The Newsboys recorded the track "In the Belly of the Whale" for the end credits of the 2002 movie Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie.

After the success of "It Is You", the Newsboys then followed with two praise and worship albums: Adoration: The Worship Album in 2003 and Devotion in 2004. Late in 2003, Davis departed and was replaced by Bryan Olesen on guitar. In 2005, The Newsboys co-authored a book of devotions with Jim Laffoon entitled Our Daily Blog which was published by Inspiro and released on 1 November.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> They also recorded their Creation 2005 set for a live DVD to be released with their upcoming album.Template:Citation needed In 2006, Olesen left the band to focus on his own band Casting Pearls and was replaced by Paul Colman, formerly of Paul Colman Trio.

More radio hits came in 2006 with a live version of "I Am Free" (originally written by Jon Egan of the Desperation Band), and "Wherever We Go". On 31 October 2006, The Newsboys released a pop/rock record entitled GO. GO featured David Eri as a co-writer and the songs "Something Beautiful" and "In Wonder" were big hits on Christian Radio.<ref name="RR2007CHR">Template:Cite web</ref> That December, Joel announced that he would leave the band to pursue his own projects and albums. On 8 May 2007, the band released GO Remixed which was made up of new versions of the songs from GO and featured remixes by Tedd T., Jeff Frankenstein, Max Hsu of Superchick and Lee Bridges.

Peter Furler was lead singer of the band for 12 years.

On 20 November 2007 the Newsboys released their second greatest hits compilation, The Greatest Hits. The eighteen-song CD also features two new songs "I Fought the La..." and "Stay Strong". This album was followed by Newsboys Live: Houston We Are GO, a CD/DVD combo recording package of a show from the GO Tour, which was released on 30 September 2008. Also in 2008, the band, with Steve Taylor providing vocals, recorded the song "Yo Ho Hero" for The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie. In 2007, the band's co-founder George Perdikis renounced Christianity and declared himself an atheist. He had not been involved with the band for seventeen years, nor was he in any way involved with their commercially and critically successful singles or albums.<ref name="patheos-atheist" />

On 5 January 2009, Colman announced he would be leaving The Newsboys to return to his solo projects. At the same time, it was announced that Davis would return to the band, after a five-year hiatus. "I am thrilled to be returning to the band and back with my bandmates, who are some of my best friends," says Davis, "this is a big change in my life, and I'm looking forward to the tour and new record with excitement."<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Newsboys with Michael Tait in 2009

In 2009, it was announced that Furler, having toured with The Newsboys since the band's inception, had decided to step back into a support role and would continue as the band's primary songwriter and producer. Because of this, a replacement lead vocalist was required so the band could continue touring. On 9 March 2009, it was announced that Michael Tait, formerly of dc Talk, would be the new lead singer. "Michael Tait will be touring with the band as lead singer with Furler making special appearances throughout the year. Furler will continue with the band and his trademark songwriting and production will remain as he focuses his professional career toward future Newsboys recordings."<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> On March 17, Tait performed his first full concert as lead singer in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.

The Newsboys released the studio album In the Hands of God on 5 May on Inpop Records with Max Hsu producing the album. Long-time collaborator Steve Taylor co-wrote all the songs and sang on one song. During their concert of September 11 in Orlando, Furler announced that this would be his final guest appearance with the band. His full departure left no original members remaining in the band.

The band appeared in a sequence for the film God's Not Dead, released in 2014.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Tait expressed excitement about the film to The Global Dispatch during an interview, saying that "The movie is powerful because of the whole stance of it... just trying to prove God's existence... sharing the gospel, living the lifestyle, changing the mindset of people around them in this college, in this university."<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Duncan Phillips added in a similar interview that "Disney's Shane Harper plays a college student whose faith is challenged by his professor, played by Kevin Sorbo from Hercules. Dean Cain from Superman is in it, too. So we got to hang out with a bunch of superheroes. The movie raises a lot of questions and a lot of eyebrows from a culture that questions if there is a God."<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

The band embarked on the "We Believe Tour".<ref>Template:Cite webTemplate:Cbignore</ref> They performed at the BigChurchDayOut 2014 and again in 2017.

2020s

The band released their twentieth album Stand on 1 October 2021. On 29 March 2023, it was announced that Adam Agee, formerly of Stellar Kart and Audio Adrenaline would be joining the band as the fifth member.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The band also announced "He Lives" as a digital single marking the first single with Agee, which was released on 31 March 2023.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> In 2024, Newsboys announced a two-part album: World Wide Revival. World Wide Revival Part 1 was released on 19 July 2024.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Its first single, "How Many Times" and its music video were released the same day as well.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>Template:Better source On 16 January 2025, Tait released a statement on social media saying he would be stepping down as lead singer of Newsboys.<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Adam Agee stepped in as lead vocalist. On 14 March 2025, the band released their first single with Agee as the vocalist, "How Many Times (Oh How You Love Me)".<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

"Worldwide Revival (Deluxe)" was released on 30 May 2025. It includes 4 more songs than "Worldwide Revival Part 1", and also had some songs re-recorded with Agee.

In June 2025, it was reported that Tait was accused of sexual misconduct by three different men, with the alleged assaults occurring in 2004, 2010, and 2014.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The remaining members of the band issued a statement saying that while Tait had confessed to "living a double life" as a reason for leaving the band, they were unaware of the allegations made against him prior to the reports. Furthermore, they expressed support to the victims involved and encouraged others to come forward.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Two days later, the band confessed that they had heard rumors of Tait's behavior, which he denied when initially confronted about it. Following this development, several Christian radio stations removed the band's music from rotation, with certain levels of rotation bans. Some allowed material recorded before 2009 (when Tait joined the group), and in other cases, new music recorded in 2025 after Agee rerecorded songs to replace Tait, to continue being on rotation. Others, including KLVR banned their music outright. Most stations with outright or post-2009 era bans held them responsible for perceived complicity in Tait's actions.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

On June 10, Tait released a public statement admitting to the allegations, apologizing to the victims, the band, and everyone else affected by his actions. He said that furthermore a reason for his abrupt departure was to seek treatment and counseling and vowed to continue pursuing repentance and spiritual healing away from the stage.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Nine days later, it was reported by The Roys Report that a woman anonymously said that she was drugged by Tait and then sexually assaulted by the Newsboys' lighting technician Matthew Brewer in a hotel room in December 2014, with Tait watching. She also alleged that the Newsboys' tour manager Steve Campbell helped cover up the assault and although she reported it to police, no action was taken. Hotel security footage was presented to back her statement.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

On June 22, the Newsboys announced that they had been dropped by their record label, Capitol Christian Music Group, due to the allegations surrounding Tait.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> In July, it was revealed that band manager Wes Campbell resigned as a board member of the Gospel Music Association. Wes also stated that his brother Steve was placed on leave from his role in the Newsboys organization amidst investigations surrounding the 2014 incident.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
