Newsboys have done it yet again. Not only has the band's No. 1 single, "Born Again," continued to stay at the top of the CHR charts for the fourth week in a row, but the hit song has also made a new landmark. Since releasing to iTunes just two weeks ago the single has sold close to an astounding 12,000 units, almost 7,000 its first week out. In addition, the first day "Born Again" was available on iTunes, "Born Again" was the No. 1 song on the Singles Chart. "Born Again" is newsboys' first single from the July 13th CD release of Born Again (inpop records).

A band well-known for their stellar live shows, last week newsboys kicked off its run of headlining 23 major festivals throughout the summer in the U.S. and Canada. Performing at such festivals as last month's Spirit West Coast in Del Mar, CA, this month's Atlantafest and July's Creation East, newsboys will literally be performing in front of tens of thousands of fans each night.
