NASHVILLE, TENN. (SEPTEMBER 29, 2023) – GRAMMY-winning, multi-Platinum-selling group Casting Crowns is celebrating its 20th Anniversary as a band this fall with a legacy album, Lifesong: A Celebration of the First 20 Years, available here. Continuing the celebration, the group is touring this fall on the “Casting Crowns’ 20th Anniversary Tour: A Live Symphony Experience,” and a band documentary, Casting Crowns: Home By Sunday, will premiere in theatres on November 30th.

The milestone anniversary album features 21 songs and 20 guest artists who have taken a Casting Crowns song and re-recorded it in their reimagined versions. The album will include chart-topping songs like “Voice of Truth,” “Nobody,” “Praise You In This Storm,” and “Who Am I” as well as songs re-recorded by the group themselves along with one brand new song, “On This Desert Road.” This commemorative collection is a beautiful way to honor the band’s impactful career. Today three lyric videos for “Nobody,” “Praise You In This Storm” and “Who Am I” will debut on YouTube.

The band’s fall tour, “Casting Crowns’ 20th Anniversary Tour: A Live Symphony Experience,” began last night and will make stops in cities across the country including Boston, Baltimore, Indianapolis, Cleveland, Tulsa, Austin, San Antonio, San Diego and Tucson, among others. On this 20-city tour, Casting Crowns will be joined on tour by a live orchestra for this one-of-its-kind concert experience. Check out the cities at castingcrowns.com.

Culminating the anniversary, Home By Sunday shares the stories behind the journey, music, and ministry of Casting Crowns.
