Latest christian music: Relient K started their new tour this month. The 28 city tour started on May 9 at the Tampa, Florida Busch Gardens. The tour ends on August 3 in Columbus, Ohio at the Ohio Expo Center. Relient K will be joined by fellow Christian-indie rockers Owl City, the Classic Crime, and Runner Runner.
The tour is in support of Relient K’s newest album, The Birds and the Bee Sides, which was released last summer. The double disc hit the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Top Christian and Gospel Albums chart.
Lead singer/guitarist Matthew Thiessen said to LiveDaily.com, “Whatever people want to call us, they can call us. I’m Christian. I write a lot about that stuff. I think it’s important for me in my life and we obviously want to write songs about things that are important. At the same time, if you don’t share the same beliefs as us, you’re probably not going to get rubbed the wrong way with our music.”
