[Album] Where The Joy Is – We Are Messengers
Ahead of their U.S. spring tour, set to launch 3/7 in Waco, Texas, Curb Records’ We Are Messengers drops Where The Joy Is today (Apr 5).
The K-LOVE Fan Award-winning group embraces gratitude and the simplicity of the Gospel on Where The Joy Is, radiating as much exuberance as the title suggests. The collective’s latest endeavor boasts 10 pristine, arena-ready pop selections — all co-written by frontman Darren Mulligan alongside an array of the industry’s most respected lyricists.
In addition to standout collaborations with Ben Fuller (“I Found Rest”) and Blanca (“My Hope Is In You”), the fresh set also includes the driving title-cut, fist-pumping anthem “A Thousand Times” and lead radio single “God Be The Glory.”
The band has been busy giving fans a taste of their new record live with buzzworthy concerts in Australia and New Zealand, as well as sold-out shows in the States. The spring leg of their nationwide “Where The Joy Is Tour” will wrap at the end of April having visited 27 U.S. markets this year with direct support from both Fuller and Jonathan Traylor.
This summer, the acclaimed outfit will continue their global itinerary with a calendar full of fair and festival dates, including Big Church Festival in the U.K. and the sold-out “K-LOVE Live at Red Rocks” event taking over the iconic amphitheater in Morrison, Colo., in August.

Giving fans a taste of their new record live, the band recently returned from Australia and New Zealand, where they headlined capacity shows in five different cities, concluding their time down under with a sold-out concert in Brisbane.

“This USA tour is going to be the most joyful, wonderful tour we’ve ever done,” Mulligan says of the band’s next run of shows. “Something shifted for us a couple of years ago, and the Lord turned all our mourning to dancing and all our sorrow to joy. It’s transformed our lives, and we can’t wait to share it with you all. Make sure you grab your tickets today, and we’ll see you soon.”
