By: Hoganson Media Taking this communal aesthetic prominent in all of the band’s music to the masses, including new songs from HEART and its fan favorites, The City Harmonic launches its “The Heart Tour” Oct. 5 in Denver (Snyder, CO). Presented by World Vision, the tour continues across the Western US through Nov. 3 hitting markets like Phoenix (10/10), San Diego (Carlsbad, CA 10/11), Los Angeles (Pomona, CA 10/12), Portland (10/17), Reno, NV (10/24), San Jose, CA (10/25) and more. Known for its engaging live performances, The City Harmonic’s latest concert itinerary, information on tickets and more can be found at www.TheCityHarmonic.com. (Tour dates are also listed below, and a promotional video is online at http://www.youtube.com/ As listeners continue to resonate en masse, instinctively joining the chorus while The City Harmonic’s music dynamically bounces from sparse intimacy to soaring celebration and back again, Integrity Music offers music fans the opportunity to pre-order HEART. The pre-sale has already launched HEART to the Top 5 on the iTunes® Christian and Gospel chart, where those who pre-order receive an instant download. iTunes is also offering an Exclusive Deluxe version of the album that includes four bonus videos. The 14 songs on HEART build from where the band left off with its widely acclaimed, JUNO Award-winning I Have A Dream (It Feels Like Home). Reflecting life lived by the band members since their full-length debut, the new album shifts from the dream of what could and should be to the complexities of how to follow the true humanity of Christ’s example in the world. Experiencing that complexity firsthand over the past two years, The City Harmonic members went from working day jobs to recording and touring full time. Aaron had his first child, Josh was married, Elias had his fourth child and Eric was diagnosed with cancer. In a very real sense, life set the context for HEART. At the core of the new album is the first radio single, “A City On A Hill,” which is steeped in the Beatitudes found in Matthew 5 and is receiving national airplay now at KCMS/Seattle, WQME/Indianapolis, WHPZ/South Bend, KCVO/Joplin and many others. “‘A City On A Hill’ takes the high concept view of Christ and brings it down to earth in the form of the very things he said in the Sermon on the Mount,” says Elias. “It also forms a natural transition into the balance of the album which attempts to marry the ideals with our real lives.” Highlighting another sermon, Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have A Dream” speech, on their full-length debut, I Have A Dream (It Feels Like Home), The City Harmonic members were recently tapped by , the flagship nightly news and current affairs program from Canada’s public broadcaster, CBC, for its 50th anniversary coverage commemorating Martin Luther King, Jr.’s famous speech. In addition to their interview, the band sang part of their award winning song, “I Have A Dream (It Feels Like Home).” The resulting feature is scheduled to air on CBC this Wednesday, Aug. 28, and also include interviews with Karl Subban, father of hockey player P.K. Subban, Dr. Michael Real, who was present at the “I Have A Dream” speech, and Wanda Robson, sister of Viola Desmond (who has similar story as Rosa Parks). The story is further slated to run at www.cbc.ca/thenational. Forming nearly four years ago, The City Harmonic went from anonymity to widespread acclaim, headlining tours across North America and gathering numerous awards along the way. In addition to the Juno Award, the band has a Gospel Music Association (GMA) New Artist of the Year Dove Award nomination, four GMA Canada Covenant Awards and nearly 3,000,000 YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/ “The Heart Tour” itinerary follows: Oct 05, 2013, Snyder, CO, Snyder Bible Church (no Royal Royal) Oct 06, 2013, Durango, CO, The River Church Oct 10, 2013, Phoenix, AZ, Grand Canyon University, Tickets (http://www.gcuarena.com/ Oct 11, 2013, Carlsbad, CA, Daybreak Community Church, Tickets (http://tickets.ticketforce.com/ Oct 12, 2013, Pomona, CA, First Baptist Church of Pomona, Tickets (http://tickets.ticketforce.com/ Oct 13, 2013, Murrieta, CA, Calvary Chapel Murrieta, Tickets (http://tickets.ticketforce.com/ Oct 16, 2013, Coos Bay, OR, Southwestern Oregon Community College Oct 17, 2013, Portland, OR, Venue tbd Oct 18, 2013, Bend, OR, Journey Church, Tickets (https://www.itickets.com/ Oct 19, 2013, Kennewick, WA, Calvary Chapel Tri-Cities, Tickets (https://www.itickets.com/ Oct 20, 2013, Everett, WA, Historic Everett Theatre Oct 24, 2013, Reno, NV, Venue tbd Oct 25, 2013, San Jose, CA, Family Life Christian Center, Tickets (https://www.itickets.com/ Oct 26, 2013, Vallejo, CA, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Oct 27, 2013, Santa Rosa, CA, Spring Hills Community Church, Tickets (https://www.itickets.com/ Nov 01, 2013, Paris, ON, Breaside Camp, Tickets (http://www.itickets.com/ Nov 02, 2013, Cleveland, OH, CSU Wolstein Center (The City Harmonic only) Nov 03, 2013, Mason, WV, Soul Harvest Church * Tour dates subject to change All the latest detail on the band and its touring can be found at: www.thecityharmonic.com http://www.facebook.com/ http://www.myspace.com/ http://www.youtube.com/ http://twitter.com/ End
