Four-time GRAMMY Award-winning duo and Curb | Word Entertainment recording artist For KING & COUNTRY recently released “Heavenly Hosts,” the latest track and lyric video from the duo’s forthcoming Christmas album A Drummer Boy Christmas, out October 30th.
“Heavenly Hosts” is one of two original songs written by for KING & COUNTRY for their new album.
Fresh off their win at the Billboard Music Awards for Top Christian Song, Joel and Luke Smallbone, the brothers who make up for KING & COUNTRY, share in a statement:
“Writing an original Christmas song is a bit of a daunting task, but we were always very intrigued by what it looked like when the angels met the shepherds.
What did it look like, and what was being said? One of the beautiful storylines of the song is that the simple shepherds were the first ones to see the beautiful spectacle in the sky, and we thought it would be an appropriate story to tell through song for A Drummer Boy Christmas.”
“Heavenly Hosts” is a dynamic and emotional celebration of the wonder and power of Christmas.
For KING & COUNTRY’s latest original tune starts off with a sparse piano introduction that soon evolves into a full orchestra crescendo as Joel and Luke state declaratively “love has come to save us.” Watch the lyric video for “Heavenly Hosts” below.
Joel and Luke Smallbone discuss the origin of “Heavenly Hosts” in their “Story Behind the Song” video clip below as well.
For KING & COUNTRY announced “A Drummer Boy Drive-In: The Christmas Tour” to celebrate the duo’s first Christmas album and support The Salvation Army.
To support The Salvation Army’s Rescue Christmas campaign, concertgoers can bring new, unwrapped toys that will be collected by representatives from the local Salvation Army and distributed to families struggling during the holiday season.
For KING & COUNTRY are performing drive-in shows this weekend, including a SOLD-OUT show tonight in Spring Hill, TN.
