As Australia's #1 modern worship band, Hillsong United have exploded around the globe with their engaging passionate approach impacting thousands in live events and becoming a favourite source for new worship music.

The Sunday worship night at GMA Week, which will be hosted by Michael W Smith, is one of the first stops for Hillsong United on their North American tour, which will be accompanied by Starfield in Canada.

Hillsong United's Creative Director, Joel Houston, who is also one of United's worship leaders and songwriters, said, "We are really excited about coming back to North America and we're looking forward to taking songs, which have been specifically written to be sung corporately, to young people across the continent."

Over 3,000 gospel musicians and fans will gather in Nashville, Tennessee, in the US for the GMA Music Week 07' - to listen, invent, renew, and connect.

The convention kicks off 21 April, wrapping up on 25 April with the GMA Dove Awards - Christian music's biggest night of the year.
