|PIC1|Australian rock worship band, Hillsong United, will be teaming up with Canadian rockers Starfield for their concerts in Canada.
Hillsong United will embark on a tour of the US and Canada in April, bringing its explosive and passionate brand of modern worship across North America.
In addition, the team is preparing for the May release of All of the Above, the band's eighth CD and first-ever studio recording.
Hillsong United is expected to play before an estimated 150,000 people between April and August.
One of the first stops on the North American tour will be Nashville, where Hillsong United have been invited to lead the Sunday night worship service at GMA Music Week, gospel and Christian music's annual industry convention.
The worship night will be hosted by Hillsong United supporter and friend, Michael W Smith, and held on Sunday 22 April at the Ryman Theatre in Nashville.
Hillsong United's Creative Director, Joel Houston, who is also one of United's worship leaders and songwriters, said, "We are really excited about coming back to North America and we're looking forward to taking songs, which have been specifically written to be sung corporately, to young people across the continent."
"With the tour and new record, our hope is to stir up a generation both locally and globally to live lives that are sold out for God and His cause - lives that are committed to being His hands and feet on the planet, and to bringing justice to the hurting and the broken," Houston added.
