Michael Tait with the Newsboys
Yes, that is right Michael Tait has replaced Peter Furler as lead singer of the Newsboys. I had been hearing rumors of this for a while but it is offical. After 22 years with the group Furler will no longer be touring with the group. He will continue to write and produce plus make some appearances with the group.
New Release Tuesday with Tait & Duncan Phillips confirming the changes to the band. I’ve found a few clips with Tait and am looking forward to actually hearing/seeing something with the “new” Newsboys. In the mean time enjoy this clip of the “old” Newsboys performing He Reigns.
how can they replace Furler ????????
Furler will still be producing and appearing occasionally.
wow….
i wish i had known thsi ahead of time :/
Furler is awesome
how can you have Newsboys without him?
im sure Tait is great, but….Pete is the main person that made me attracted to Newsboys when i was a kid
He has a great vibe that made me love them instantly!
well, nevertheless Gods will be done
God bless you Newsboys and everyone else
Tait is the touring lead. Furler is still producing and recording.
I agree. Without Furler, this is no longer the Newsboys. Sorry. Just saying.
Well many said the same thing when Schiltt joined Petra but Petra was better with Schiltt.
when i first heard their new song, i new it sounded like a Toby Mack/DC Talk style of music and its good to know that Michael tait has made a come back—i think the new group is going to be awsome!
