“We love bringing Winter Jam to the West Coast,” said tour creator and NewSong founding member Eddie Carswell. “We’re confident God has once again assembled a lineup of amazing artists who will touch hearts for His glory. We can’t wait to watch as arenas are transformed into houses of worship and celebration each night.”
Founders and hosts of the Winter Jam Tour Spectacular, NewSong’s iconic career has spanned more than 30 years and includes 19 albums, 20 #1 Christian radio singles, a #1 mainstream AC hit, a GRAMMY® Award nomination and induction into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame, among numerous other achievements. One of the most beloved bands in Christian music, the group’s discography includes such defining songs as “Arise, My Love,” “Rescue,“ “The Same God,” and the blockbuster holiday favorite, “The Christmas Shoes.”
Winter Jam exploded from a single show in 1995 to the world’s #1 first-quarter tour for four consecutive years, according to Pollstar. Throughout two decades, Winter Jam has helped provide a powerful platform for the Gospel in major arenas nationwide, consistently showcasing Christian music’s brightest stars. The tour’s storied history was documented in April’s one-night national box-office release, “This Is Winter Jam,” presented by Fathom Events and WORD Entertainment. In 2015, Winter Jam played to more than 700,000 people across the country, shattering the tour’s previous attendance records.
