Today is the day the band releases their 10th studio album, <em>Revelation. <\/em><br \/>\nAfter 15 years together the band has amassed 25 #1 radio singles, 23 Dove Awards, three Grammy Awards and two consecutive American Music Award nominations, and yet with this album they still manage to offer something fresh, with a glimpse into their own personal faith journey.<br \/>\n&#8220;When you get older in your faith, you don&#8217;t necessarily have fewer questions,&#8221; confesses lead vocalist Mac Powell.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nThe songs on the album explore the complexities of living out one&#8217;s faith in today&#8217;s world, and offer some unique collaborations. They teamed up with pedal steel guitar phenomenon Robert Randolph on &#8220;Otherside;&#8221; Chris Daughtrey adds his vocals to &#8220;Slow Down;&#8221; and Flyleaf&#8217;s Lacey Mosley joins the band on &#8220;Run To You&#8221; and the ballad, &#8220;Born Again.&#8221;<br \/>\nIn writing and recording <em>Revelation,<\/em> the guys came to terms with the fact they don&#8217;t have all the answers, but they know the One who does, and they can glean comfort and peace in that knowledge.<br \/>\n&#8220;Sharing God&#8217;s love with people has always been core to us,&#8221; says drummer David Carr. &#8220;We want to reiterate that God loves us. That is a concept that should never get old.&#8221;<br \/>\nAnd their platform to share that message gets more mainstream every day. The band was recently featured on the cover of Billboard magazine&#8217;s June 7, 2008 issue, and was included in the magazine&#8217;s May 2 and April 26 issues. They&#8217;ve appeared or been highlighted in major media outlets like CNN&#8217;s Anderson Cooper 360, &#8220;The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,&#8221; NBC Sports, Fox News and MTV.<br \/>\nThird Day is scheduled to appear tonight on &#8220;The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.&#8221;<br \/>\nIn August, the band will head out on the &#8220;Music Builds&#8221; tour, with Switchfoot, Robert Randolph and The Family Band, and Jars of Clay. The tour will kick off August 21 in Detroit and end October 12 in Denver.<br \/>\nThe tour will benefit Habitat for Humanity. The artists will collectively donate $1 from each ticket sold to Habitat for Humanity; special auctions, merchandise and event packages will also fund Habitat for Humanity in each tour city.<br \/>\nFor more information and complete tour dates, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thirdday.com\/in_index.html\" target=\"_blank\">visit Third Day&#8217;s website.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hold on Third Day fans.
