The Newsboys have never been strangers to change. Over the course of their decades-long career, the band has seen lineup shifts, musical reinventions, and a steadfast commitment to their ministry. Now, as they step into a new chapter following Michael Tait’s recent departure, the group has made it clear that their mission remains stronger than ever.

In a statement released on March 3rd, the Newsboys—now comprised of Jeff Frankenstein, Jody Davis, Duncan Phillips, and Adam Agee—expressed their excitement for the future while acknowledging the transition they have undergone over the past several weeks.

“The last six weeks have been quite a journey, but through it all, God has continually shown His faithfulness to us. We are excited about our future, just the four of us,” the band shared.

Part of that future includes new music, a testament to their enduring passion for worship and outreach. Their first release of 2025 will be a newly reimagined version of How Many Times, a song that holds special significance within the group. Originally penned by Adam Agee when he first joined the band, the updated version—now titled How Many Times (Oh How You Love Me)—will serve as their first offering in this next season. Look for the release on March 14th.

While lineup changes have been a recurring theme throughout the Newsboys’ history, their commitment to ministry has remained unwavering. Their music, their mission, and their message continue to point to the faithfulness of God—a foundation that has sustained them through every season of change.

FULL STATEMENT:

The last six weeks have been quite a journey, but through it all, God has continually shown His faithfulness to us.  We are excited about our future, just the four of us.

We also have been working on new music this month, and we can’t wait to start sharing it with you!  Our first release of 2025 is a new version of How Many Times, which was the first song Adam wrote when he joined the band.  Newly titled How Many Times (oh how You love me), this version feels like the right song to share first as we enter this new season. It releases everywhere you listen to music on March 14th.

Thank you for the love and support, it has meant the world to us!
