For King & Country accept the New Artist of the Year Award at the 44th Annual GMA Dove Awards on October 15, 2013 in Nashville, Tennessee.
The new project is already available for pre-order on iTunes but they are also offering a concert ticket/pre-order deal. Fans can get their concert tickets for $10 and for an additional $9.99, they can pre-order an autographed copy of the new album ($19.99 total). Even better? For $29.99, fans can get the pre-order, VIP tickets with early entry and a special Q&A with the band.
In a press release, Joel talked about the new project, saying, "Run Wild. Live Free. Love Strong is a statement of reclaiming our birthright as humans to live a life that is for others--a life that is others-focused, God-focused--and in that find what it truly means to run wild, live free and love strong." He continued, "While Crave was a great foundational piece, particularly if you have seen us live, you will see this springboard into a new and more developed version of what for KING & COUNTRY is with the rhythm and all of these different components. One of the things that is really exciting with the album overall is that we have about 300-plus shows under our belts at this point with a group of guys that have become like brothers. We have made these discoveries along the way--our love for rhythm, our excitement for theatrics. These sorts of things have naturally found themselves inside the new record."
