World Vision presents the upcoming ‘The Name of Jesus Tour’ that kicks off in the U.S. on March 3. The tour will feature Christian chart-toppers Todd Agnew and Big Daddy Weave, along with newcomers Nate Sallie and Jason Morant.
The concept for the tour is “one night about the One Name that changes everything.” Pamela Muse, director of artist associates for World Vision, comments, “Todd Agnew and Big Daddy Weave are so transparent and authentic when it comes to letting Christ shine through. We believe that this tour will challenge, inspire, and even confront individuals with the claims of the Cross like never before. Without a doubt, this is one of the top tours going coast to coast this Spring.”Mike Weaver of Big Daddy Weave echoes Muse’s enthusiasm, “When your tour is called ‘The Name of Jesus’ Tour, you want to be sure that the guys who share the stage are solid. We know that Todd and his guys, Nate Sallie, and Jason Morant have hearts that will point people to Jesus.”
Todd Agnew concurs, “A lot of thought and prayer has gone into this tour. Mike and I enjoy our time offstage almost as much as we enjoy sharing the stage. We’ve already spent hours wrestling with these ideas, and we’re really looking forward to bringing these ideas to life on tour.”
Todd Agnew broke onto the Christian music scene with his debut album Grace Like Rain, which produced such hit singles as, “This Fragile Breath (The Thunder Song), and the title track. Agnew’s sophomore project, A Reflection Of Something, and the first single, “My Jesus,” is a powerful ballad that is already climbing the charts.
Big Daddy Weave’s What I Was Made For, which debuted in the Top 10 on the Christian Soundscan chart and features two top-three singles including the No. 1 hit, “You’re Worthy Of My Praise” (a duet with labelmates, BarlowGirl), and the No. 3 hit “Just The Way I Am.”
