David Crowder Band Prepare For Final Show Ahead Of Last Album 'Give Us Rest'
David Crowder Band are preparing to perform their final concert together ahead of the release of their final studio album, 'Give Us Rest or (A Requiem Mass in C [The Happiest of All Keys])', released on 10th January 2012. The band will perform their final ever show at the Passion 2012 Conference at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta tonight, 2nd January 2012, before finishing as a band following six studio albums, seven Dove Awards and a Grammy Nomination.
The popular American worship band announced back in May 2011 that they would be ending in early 2012 following the release of their final album. "The decision was reached that this sixth album would be our last", explained the band. "None of us is sure what's next, but we're not afraid. We're, in fact, really, really excited! And we're sure that music will play a role in the future for most, if not all, of us, since, well, we wouldn't know how to not have it a part of our lives."
Over the years the band's accolades have included being named among the "most thoughtful, progressive and exciting acts in contemporary Christian music" by The New York Times, receiving a Grammy nomination for their 2009 album 'Church Music', which debuted at Number 1 on the Christian retail chart and Number 11 on the Billboard Top 200. The band were also the first Christian artist to be named MSN.com's Artist of the Year in 2006.
